ConjunctionScorer - more tuneup
-------------------------------
Key: LUCENE-693
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-693
Project: Lucene - Java
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Search
Affects Versions: 2.1
Environment: Windows Server 2003 x64, Java 1.6, pretty large index
Reporter: Peter Keegan
(See also: #LUCENE-443)
I did some profile testing with the new ConjuctionScorer in 2.1 and discovered
a new bottleneck in ConjunctionScorer.sortScorers. The java.utils.Arrays.sort
method is cloning the Scorers array on every sort, which is quite expensive on
large indexes because of the size of the 'norms' array within, and isn't
necessary.
Here is one possible solution:
private void sortScorers() {
// squeeze the array down for the sort
// if (length != scorers.length) {
// Scorer[] temps = new Scorer[length];
// System.arraycopy(scorers, 0, temps, 0, length);
// scorers = temps;
// }
insertionSort( scorers,length );
// note that this comparator is not consistent with equals!
// Arrays.sort(scorers, new Comparator() { // sort the array
// public int compare(Object o1, Object o2) {
// return ((Scorer)o1).doc() - ((Scorer)o2).doc();
// }
// });
first = 0;
last = length - 1;
}
private void insertionSort( Scorer[] scores, int len)
{
for (int i=0; i<len; i++) {
for (int j=i; j>0 && scores[j-1].doc() > scores[j].doc();j-- ) {
swap (scores, j, j-1);
}
}
return;
}
private void swap(Object[] x, int a, int b) {
Object t = x[a];
x[a] = x[b];
x[b] = t;
}
The squeezing of the array is no longer needed.
We also initialized the Scorers array to 8 (instead of 2) to avoid having to
grow the array for common queries, although this probably has less performance
impact.
This change added about 3% to query throughput in my testing.
