Upayavira commented on LUCENE-6590:
-----------------------------------

It seems a previous test I did was flawed (I thought I was pushing updated 
configs, but suspect that I was actually pushing old ones). Scoring is now 
working correctly, the main change being an update of the Lucene match version 
from 4.6 to 5.5.

> Follow-up from LUCENE-6570: the fact that all queries are mutable in order to 
> allow for applying a boost raises issues since it makes queries bad cache 
> keys since their hashcode can change anytime. We could just document that 
> queries should never be modified after they have gone through IndexSearcher 
> but it would be even better if the API made queries impossible to mutate at 
> all.
> I think there are two main options:
>  - either replace "void setBoost(boost)" with something like "Query 
> withBoost(boost)" which would return a clone that has a different boost
>  - or move boost handling outside of Query, for instance we could have a 
> (immutable) query impl that would be dedicated to applying boosts, that 
> queries that need to change boosts at rewrite time (such as BooleanQuery) 
> would use as a wrapper.
> The latter idea is from Robert and I like it a lot given how often I either 
> introduced or found a bug which was due to the boost parameter being ignored. 
> Maybe there are other options, but I think this is worth exploring.
