             Summary: Order LeafReaderContexts by Estimated Number Of Hits
                 Key: LUCENE-8788
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8788
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Atri Sharma


We offer no guarantee on the order in which an IndexSearcher will look at 
segments during a search operation. This can be improved for use cases where an 
engine using Lucene invokes early termination and uses the partially collected 
hits. A better model would be if we sorted segments by the estimated number of 
hits, thus increasing the probability of the overall relevance of the returned 
partial results.
