Mikhail Khludnev commented on SOLR-5725:
----------------------------------------

* {{enumprobing}} is not the best name. Got it. {{facet.method=nonzero}} is 
good one. Don't you afraid, that user will confuse it with legacy 
{{facet.zeros}}?
bq.  there should be some parameter other than facet.method that enables this.
I'm afraid users will try to combine it with {{fc}},{{fcs}},{{uif}}, that's why 
I prefer to switch it as method. 
Thus, I like {{facet.method=exists}} from proposed ones. Btw, initially this 
name was {{intersects}}. WDYT? My point was that this method works like 
{{enum}} distinguishing from other ones, but this one is faster. What about 
{{fastenum}} or {{enumbit}}?

> 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.
