> {{UnInvertedField}} has via {{DocTermOrds}} an internal limitation of 2^24 
> bytes for byte-arrays holding term ordinals. For String faceting on 
> high-cardinality Text fields, this can trigger the exception with "Too many 
> values for UnInvertedField". A search for that phrase shows that the 
> exception is encountered in the wild.
> The limitation is due to the packing being a combination of values and 
> pointers: If the values (term ordinals) for a given document-ID can fit in an 
> integer, they are stored directly. If the value of the first 8 bits in the 
> integer is 1, it signals that the following 3 bytes (24 bits) is a pointer 
> into a byte-array, limiting the array-size to 16M (2^24).
> Solution: Due to the values being packed at vInts, bit 31 (the last bit) of 
> the integer will never be 1 if the integer contains values. This means that 
> this bit it can be used for signalling whether or not the preceding bits 
> should be parsed as values or a pointer. The effective pointer size is thus 
> 2^31, which matches the array-length limit in Java. Changing the signalling 
> mechanism does not affect space requirements and should not affect 
> performance.
> Note that this is only a 100-fold increase ever the 2^24 limit, not an 
> elimination: Performing uninverted Text field faceting on 100M documents with 
> 5K terms each will still raise an exception.
