-----------------------------------

             Summary: ScoreMode not always set correctly in Solr queries
                 Key: SOLR-12375
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-12375
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Improvement
      Security Level: Public (Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
          Components: search
    Affects Versions: 7.3.1, 5.1
            Reporter: David Smiley
            Assignee: David Smiley
             Fix For: 7.4


A query can be informed that scores are not needed based on it's context/use, 
and some queries are able to operate more efficiently if it knows this 
up-front.  This is about the ScoreMode enum.

I reviewed the use of {{ScoreMode.COMPLETE}} in Solr and I think we should make 
the following changes:

Solr filter queries (fq) are non-scoring.  
{{SolrIndexSearcher.getProcessedFilter}} will pass ScoreMode.COMPLETE when it 
ought to be COMPLETE_NO_SCORES to createWeight.  This perf bug is only 
applicable when the filter query is not cached (either cache=false local-param 
or no filter cache).  This error was made in LUCENE-6220 (Solr 5.1); at that 
time it was a boolean.

The {{/export}} handler (more specifically ExportQParserPlugin) is also 
affected; it's COMPLETE when it should always be COMPLETE_NO_SCORES.  Also 
appears to be in error since Solr 5.1.

SolrIndexSearcher.getDocListAndSetNC ought to use TOP_SCORES to track the 
top-score to be more correct but it's a distinction without a difference since 
MultiCollector.wrap with the DocSetCollector will combine it with 
COMPLETE_NO_SCORES to conclude the result is COMPLETE.
