             Summary: Streaming Expressions should leverage streaming facets
                 Key: SOLR-8909
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-8909
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Yonik Seeley


The JSON Facet API can currently stream facets (use method=stream) from a 
single node.  Each facet bucket is calculated as it is written out, so field 
cardinality has no effect on memory.

This is only from a single node - normal distributed search/faceting does not 
stream...  But that's what streaming expressions are for anyway!

One current caveat: streaming currently only works with "sort=index asc" (the 
term order in the Lucene index).
Future work could allow more complex sorts, at the cost of some memory to 
calculate the sort criteria for each bucket prior to streaming out.  Of course 
more complex sorts would require more complex merging logic (i.e. even a sort 
by bucket count is not a simple merge sort and requires more buffering in the 
merging node).
