David Smiley commented on SOLR-6581:
------------------------------------
Dallan:
bq. Any ideas how much slower numeric collapse/expand implementation is than
string collapse/expand with the top_fc hint?
I would guess a numeric impl would beat a string impl every time.
Hey FYI everyone... this is weird but while I just finished doing a major Solr
4.10 -> Solr 6.1.0 upgrade, I found that the top_fc for the collapse had quite
the opposite effect in a test environment _with no indexing/commits_. top_fc
took twice as long as without. Shrug; no clue. So folks don't go setting this
blindly without actually measuirng before & after in your own environment.

> The 4x implementation of the CollapsingQParserPlugin and the ExpandComponent
> are optimized to work with a top level FieldCache. Top level FieldCaches have
> a very fast docID to top-level ordinal lookup. Fast access to the top-level
> ordinals allows for very high performance field collapsing on high
> cardinality fields.
> LUCENE-5666 unified the DocValues and FieldCache api's so that the top level
> FieldCache is no longer in regular use. Instead all top level caches are
> accessed through MultiDocValues.
> This ticket does the following:
> 1) Optimizes Collapse and Expand to use MultiDocValues and makes this the
> default approach when collapsing on String fields
> 2) Provides an option to use a top level FieldCache if the performance of
> MultiDocValues is a blocker. The mechanism for switching to the FieldCache is
> a new "hint" parameter. If the hint parameter is set to "top_fc" then the
> top-level FieldCache would be used for both Collapse and Expand.
> Example syntax:
> {code}
> fq={!collapse field=x hint=TOP_FC}
> {code}
> 3) Adds numeric collapse field implementations.
> 4) Resolves issue SOLR-6066
