> It'd be interesting to explore using PFOR instead of FOR for doc ID encoding. 
> Right now PFOR is used for positions, frequencies and payloads, but FOR is 
> used for doc ID deltas. From a recent 
> [conversation|http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/lucene-dev/202103.mbox/%3CCAPsWd%2BOp7d_GxNosB5r%3DQMPA-v0SteHWjXUmG3gwQot4gkubWw%40mail.gmail.com%3E]
>  on the dev mailing list, it sounds like this decision was made based on the 
> optimization possible when expanding the deltas.
> I'd be interesting in measuring the index size reduction possible with 
> switching to PFOR compared to the performance reduction we might see by no 
> longer being able to apply the deltas in as optimal a way.
