Adrien Grand commented on LUCENE-8796:
--------------------------------------

Hmm it's disappointing it's not making things noticeably faster, but in the 
other hand your patch provides a better worst-case cost, in the case that 
advance is always called by very small intervals. If I'm not mistaken, this 
worst-case scenario runs in O(cost * log(cost)) today without your patch and 
O(cost) with your patch.

> Chatting with [~jpountz] , he suggested to improve IntArrayDocIdSet by making 
> its advance method use exponential search instead of binary search. This 
> should help performance of queries including conjunctions: given that 
> ConjunctionDISI uses leap frog, it advances through doc ids in small steps, 
> hence exponential search should be faster when advancing on average compared 
> to binary search.
