Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-4069:
--------------------------------------------
When I run all tests with the bloom 4.0 postings format ({{ant test-core
-Dtests.postingsformat=BloomFilteredLucene40PostingsFormat}}), I see a lot of
failures..., eg lots of CheckIndex failures like:
{noformat}
[junit4] 1> java.lang.RuntimeException: vector term=[e4 b8 80 74 77 6f]
field=textField2Utf8 does not exist in postings; doc=0

{noformat}
But also other spooky failures. Are these known issues?

> Key: LUCENE-4069
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4069
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: core/index
> Affects Versions: 3.6, 4.0
> Reporter: Mark Harwood
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 4.0, 3.6.1
>
> Attachments: BloomFilterCodec40.patch,
> MHBloomFilterOn3.6Branch.patch, PrimaryKey40PerformanceTestSrc.zip
>
>
> An addition to each segment which stores a Bloom filter for selected fields
> in order to give fast-fail to term searches, helping avoid wasted disk access.
> Best suited for low-frequency fields e.g. primary keys on big indexes with
> many segments but also speeds up general searching in my tests.
> Overview slideshow here:
> http://www.slideshare.net/MarkHarwood/lucene-bloomfilteredsegments
> Benchmarks based on Wikipedia content here: http://goo.gl/X7QqU
> Patch based on 3.6 codebase attached.
> There are no 3.6 API changes currently - to play just add a field with "_blm"
> on the end of the name to invoke special indexing/querying capability.
> Clearly a new Field or schema declaration(!) would need adding to APIs to
> configure the service properly.
> Also, a patch for Lucene4.0 codebase introducing a new PostingsFormat
