------------------------------------
Summary: drop support for 7.0 indexes in 9.0 (master)
Key: LUCENE-10168
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-10168
Project: Lucene - Core
Issue Type: Task
Reporter: Robert Muir
Recently it was decided to extend back compat *two* major releases, as a best
effort.
The effort has not been the best, though.
Test times have doubled (10 minutes vs 5 minutes on my computer), all the
slowness is in backwards codecs tests. And 9.0 isn't even released! Imagine how
slow the tests would be if we somehow made it to e.g. 9.10 release or something.
It is unsustainable.
This issue is to drop support for 7.0 indexes. I realize some ppl won't be
happy about that, if you don't like it, then suggest some alternative fix for
the tests and put in your time. Otherwise bye bye.
