Yonik Seeley commented on LUCENE-7283:
--------------------------------------
bq. I think it's really time to get rid of FieldCache
I may have missed it, but I didn't see any mailing list discussion (or any
other discussion) around this.
The main takeaway here is a reminder that consensus around bigger decisions
needs to be done in the open.
> Move SlowCompositeReaderWrapper and uninverting package to solr sources

> Key: LUCENE-7283
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-7283
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Michael McCandless
> Assignee: Michael McCandless
> Fix For: 6.1, master (7.0)

> Attachments: LUCENE-7283.patch

>
> Spinoff from LUCENE-6766, where we fixed index-time sorting to have first
> class support in Lucene's ore, and no longer use
> {{SlowCompositeReaderWrapper}}.
> This is a dangerous, long living class, that tries to pretend a set of N
> segments is actually just a single segment. It's a leaky abstraction, has
> poor performance, and puts undue pressure on the APIs of new Lucene features
> to try to keep up this illusion.
> With LUCENE-6766, finally all usage of this class (except for
> {{UninvertedReader}} tests, which should maybe also move out?) has been
> removed from Lucene, so I think we should move it to Solr. This may also
> lead to a solution for LUCENE-7086 since e.g. the class could tap into solr's
> schema to "know" how to handle points fields properly.
