Matt Ericson updated LUCENE-855: -------------------------------- Attachment: FieldCacheRangeFilter.patch Andy was correct the 2 performance tests were bogus as they did not call get() from the bit sets. And my code does all of the work int the get() call. I guess I should have looked a little closer at the tests before using it I changes his tests and mine to call and IndexSearcher.search(q,filter) and actually do the search Here are the results Using the MemoryCachedRangeFilter [junit] ------------- Standard Output --------------- [junit] Start interval: Tue Apr 09 14:32:14 PDT 2002 [junit] End interval: Sun Apr 08 14:32:14 PDT 2007 [junit] Creating RAMDirectory index...

This requires iterating through every single > term in the index and can get rather slow for large document sets. > MemoryCachedRangeFilter reads all <docId, value> pairs of a given field, > sorts by value, and stores in a SortedFieldCache. During bits(), binary > searches are used to find the start and end indices of the lower and upper > bound values. The BitSet is populated by all the docId values that fall in > between the start and end indices. > TestMemoryCachedRangeFilterPerformance creates a 100K RAMDirectory-backed > index with random date values within a 5 year range. Executing bits() 1000 > times on standard RangeQuery using random date intervals took 63904ms. Using > MemoryCachedRangeFilter, it took 876ms. Performance increase is less > dramatic when you have less unique terms in a field or using less number of > documents. > Currently MemoryCachedRangeFilter only works with numeric values (values are > stored in a long[] array) but it can be easily changed to support Strings. A > side "benefit" of storing the values are stored as longs, is that there's no > longer the need to make the values lexographically comparable, i.e. padding > numeric values with zeros. > The downside of using MemoryCachedRangeFilter is there's a fairly significant > memory requirement. So it's designed to be used in situations where range > filter performance is critical and memory consumption is not an issue. The > memory requirements are: (sizeof(int) + sizeof(long)) * numDocs. > MemoryCachedRangeFilter also requires a warmup step which can take a while to > run in large datasets (it took 40s to run on a 3M document corpus). Warmup > can be called explicitly or is automatically called the first time > MemoryCachedRangeFilter is applied using a given field. > So in summery, MemoryCachedRangeFilter can be useful when: > - Performance is critical > - Memory is not an issue > - Field contains many unique numeric values > - Index contains large amount of documents -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
