One question I have is how to indicate the dense encoding of a block. I see our blocks start with a single byte that indicates number of packed bits per doc, 0 means the block is totally dense, the lower 5 bits indicate the bits-per-doc, and the upper 3 are an exception count. Are we using the exception count? Oh I see our utilities still support it but it was removed from Lucene99PostingsFormat. Perhaps at least for experimentation purposes I can safely use one of those bits -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
