             Summary: Speed up computation of BM25 scores
                 Key: LUCENE-9071
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-9071
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Adrien Grand


We changed the way BM25 scores are computed in LUCENE-7997 in order to 
guarantee monotonicity of scores, but this translated to a small decrease of 
throughput, see annotation CC (October 2017) on Mike's nightly benchmarks. Even 
though the total number of score computations has decreased since we introduced 
block-max WAND, its relative cost is not negligible since we not only compute 
scores on collected documents, but also when decoding skip lists in order to 
compute the maximum score per block, or group of blocks.
