> There is a param use error in 
> *org.apache.lucene.util.RadixSelector#select(int, int, int, int, int).*
> What is we expected in this method is:
> if the range becomes narrow or when the maximum level of recursion has been 
> exceeded, then we get a fall-back selector(it's a IntroSelector). 
> *So, we should use the recursion level(param f)  compare to LEVEL_THRESHOLD. 
> NOT the byte index of value(param d).*
> effect: 
> This bug will not affect the correctness of the program. but affect 
> performance in some bad case. In average, RadixSelector and IntroSelector are 
> all in linear time. This bug will let we choose a fall-back selector too 
> early, then the constant of O(n) will be bigger.
>  
> other evidence:
>  # In comments, said we use recursion level (f) not byte index of value(d).
>  #  if *d* is right, then the *param f* could be deleted because of it was 
> not used by any method.
> verification:
>  # It also can select right value if i change d -> f.
>  # I did some benchmark works. but the result was unstable on random data.
>  
> Thanks for your read. I'm new of lucene. So please reply me if I am wrong. Or 
> fix it in future.
>  
> I will do benchmark. But I can't promised the result is better. If you need 
> the result. Ask for me.
