Chris Male commented on LUCENE-3482:
------------------------------------

I really have to echo Yonik's concerns here.  If we provide too much 
abstraction and indirection in the code then you're going to see a performance 
decrease just from method call overhead.  This is especially so if the 
ValueSources contain multiple layers.
                
> Refactor grouping module to be more maintainable

> Currently we have 4 types of grouping collectors and 8 concrete subclasses in 
> Lucene / Solr. In current architecture for each type of collector two 
> concrete subclasses need to be created. An implementation optimized for 
> single term based groups and a more general implementation that works with 
> MutableValue to also support grouping by functions. If we want for example 
> group by IndexDocValues each type of grouping collector needs to have three 
> concrete subclasses. This design isn't very maintainable.
> I think it is best to introduce a concept that knows how deals with dealing 
> groups for all the different sources. Therefore the grouping module should 
> depend on the queries module, so that grouping can reuse the ValueSource 
> concept. A term based concrete impl. of this concept knows for example to use 
> the DocValues.ord() method. Or more generic concrete impl. will use 
> DocValues.ValueFiller.
