             Summary: move Sorted[Set]DocValuesTermsEnum to codec
                 Key: LUCENE-4819
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4819
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: core/index
            Reporter: Robert Muir
             Fix For: 4.3


Currently a user can instantiate a SortedDocValuesTermsEnum(SortedDocValues). 

This is a generic termsenum, implementing all operations by lookupOrd().

I think instead this should be the default implementation, and we should have 
e.g. SortedDocValues.termsEnum() that returns it (codec can implement something 
fancier).

For example the default codec implements lookupOrd as an FST binary search, 
which means next() on this termsenum is much slower than it needs to be for the 
places where this enum is actually used (segment merging, OrdinalMap used for 
faceting in SOLR-4490 and LUCENE-4795) 

So instead, it can override this method and use an FSTEnum, and these 
operations are significantly faster (3x faster for me with a simple benchmark 
with 10M terms).
