Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-5725:
------------------------------------
Thinking about how we would expose this in the JSON Facet API, I suppose it
would be
method=exists (or "matches", or whatever name we pick) in a facet field
block... and the output format would be the same (but counts would not be
accurate).
It would only be an execution hint and would be ignored if not applicable (e.g.
if one is sorting by something else and the optimization no longer makes sense).

> Shot version:
> This improves performance for facet.method=enum when it's enough to know that
> facet count>0, for example when you it's when you dynamically populate
> filters on search form. New method checks if two bitsets intersect instead of
> counting intersection size.
> Long version:
> We have a dataset containing hundreds of millions of records, we facet by
> dozens of fields with many of facet-excludes and have relatively small number
> of unique values in fields, around thousands.
> Before executing search, users work with "advanced search" form, our goal is
> to populate dozens of filters with values which are applicable with other
> selected values, so basically this is a use case for facets with mincount=1,
> but without need in actual counts.
> Our performance tests showed that facet.method=enum works much better than
> fc\fcs, probably due to a specific ratio of "docset"\"unique terms count".
> For example average execution of query time with method fc=1500ms, fcs=2600ms
> and with enum=280ms. Profiling indicated the majority time for enum was spent
> on intersecting docsets.
> Hers's a patch that introduces an extension to facet calculation for
> method=enum. Basically it uses docSetA.intersects(docSetB) instead of
> docSetA. intersectionSize (docSetB).
> As a result we were able to reduce our average query time from 280ms to 60ms.
