Just wondering why MarkLogic does not make codepoint the default collation if it results in a 10% performance improvement.

"If you are not collapsing values, the codepoint collation is generally about 10% faster in its operations." We have few elements for which we need range indexes but these elements do not have any diacritic sensitive information and they just store GUIDs or similar sort of values. I was initially thinking of using root collation indexes for this. But after reading the above thread, it made me wonder if I have to be using codepoint collation for better performance. Since these elements do not have diacritic sensitive information anyway, I wonder if root collation performance will be in par with codepoint. Let me know which one is better in this scenario. Thanks, Sudheer
