Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-6764:
-------------------------------------

I disagree. Payloads should be something small like a byte or two. I dont even 
think they should be variable length: its a trap that adds additional per 
position noise. We should not encourage putting the contents of moby dick per 
position nor should we suffer the complexity hassles.

> Payloads should be compressed

> I think we should at least try to do something simple, eg. deduplicate or 
> apply simple LZ77 compression. For instance if you use enclosing html tags to 
> give different weights to individual terms, there might be lots of 
> repetitions as there are not that many unique html tags.
