Dawid Weiss commented on LUCENE-4120:
-------------------------------------
I looked at the patch and it looks good to me but I didn't really analyze it
in-depth. As for fst packing, the idea is fairly simple -- you reduce the
overall size of the fst by moving states which have lots incoming arcs to
offsets which compress well (in vcoding). At least I think that's what Mike
implemented (Mike is an unpredictable genius :) ).
This presentation has some details:

> There are some places where an int[] could be advantageously replaced with a
> packed integer array.
> I am thinking (at least) of:
> * FST.nodeAddress (GrowableWriter)
> * FST.inCounts (GrowableWriter)
> * FST.nodeRefToAddress (read-only Reader)
> The serialization/deserialization methods should be modified too in order to
> take advantage of PackedInts.get{Reader,Writer}.
