Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-10250:
--------------------------------------
If you take the solr approach #1 from that page listed, you can see it has some
faceting options such as {{prefix}} that I think SSDV doesn't support. But
maybe a low-level option like {{prefix}} is all that is needed to power the
whole feature (this kind of feature can be done efficiently, as prefixes in
term space can be converted efficiently into an "ordinal range" up front, etc)
Anyway, i'd certainly like for us to consider exploring these simpler solutions
that keep everything flat at the low-level before trying to do something more
complicated. They should be easier to prototype and implement, as well.

> Hi all,
> I recently [added a new benchmarking
> task|https://github.com/mikemccand/luceneutil/issues/141] to {{luceneutil}}
> to count facets on a random word chosen from each document which would give
> us a very high cardinality facet benchmarking compared to the faceting
> benchmarks we already had. After being merged, [~mikemccand] pointed out some
> [interesting
> results|https://home.apache.org/~mikemccand/lucenebench/BrowseRandomLabelTaxoFacets.html]
> in the nightly benchmarks where the {{BrowseRandomLabelSSDVFacets}} task was
> much faster than the {{BrowseRandomLabelTaxoFacets}} task.
> I was thinking that using SSDV facets instead of taxonomy facets for our use
> case at Amazon Product Search could potentially lead to some increases in QPS
> and decreases in index size, but the issue is we use hierarchical labels, and
> as I understand it, SSDV faceting only supports a 2 level hierarchy as of
> today. This leads to my question of why is there a limitation like this on
> SSDV facets? Is hierarchical labels just a feature that hasn't been
> implemented in SSDV facets yet, or is there some more complex reason that we
> can't add hierarchical labels to SSDV facets?
> Thanks!
