Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-4069:
--------------------------------------------
I don't think we should use a separate factory class to provide the
bloom filters; I think we should simplify. EG add overridable methods
to BloomFilteringPF; this way the default impl (8 MB, isSaturated)
would be in BloomFilteringPF.
Also, why do we need to use SPI to find the HashFunction? Seems like
overkill... we don't (yet) have a bunch of hash functions that are
vying here right? We can make this pluggable at a later time... can't
the postings format impl pass in an instance of HashFunction when
making the FuzzySet? Default would just be MurmurHash.
Can you move the imports under the copyright header? (eg in
HashFunction.java but maybe others).

> 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-ALPHA
> Reporter: Mark Harwood
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 4.0
>
> Attachments: BloomFilterPostingsBranch4x.patch,
> LUCENE-4069-tryDeleteDocument.patch, LUCENE-4203.patch,
> MHBloomFilterOn3.6Branch.patch, PKLookupUpdatePerfTest.java,
> PKLookupUpdatePerfTest.java, PKLookupUpdatePerfTest.java,
> PKLookupUpdatePerfTest.java, PrimaryKeyPerfTest40.java
>
>
> 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
