-------------------------------------

Thanks for opening this Adrien!

The patch includes the set implementation but it is not used anywhere yet. I 
was thinking about using it automatically instead of FixedBitSet in 
CachingWrapperFilter but it looks like ToParentBlockJoinQuery expects to get a 
FixedBitSet from the cache.

Maybe we should anticipate more implementations in the future? I know there are 
a lot of algorithms and "Compressed" is pretty general.

As far as ToParentBlockJoinQuery, i dont think it should make these 
assumptions... that seems wrong for it to do that.

> Our filters use bit sets a lot to store document IDs. However, it is likely 
> that most of them are sparse hence easily compressible. Having efficient 
> compressed sets would allow for caching more data.
