Paul Elschot commented on LUCENE-1187: -------------------------------------- While considering DefaultDocIdSet as a class, I thought that perhaps a better way would be to add a method to class Filter that takes the usual DocIdSet and provides the DocIdSet that should be used for caching, for example in CachingWrapperFilter. Sth like this: {code} public class Filter { ... the abstract bits() deprecated method ... ; public DocIdSet getDocIdSet(IndexReader reader) { // unchanged implementation for now. to become abstract later. } public DocIdSet getDocIdSetForCache(IndexReader reader) { // Use a default implementation here that provides a tradeoff for caching, // fairly compact when possible, but still fast. // For the moment this could be close to the code of the finalResult() method // mentioned above: DocIdSet result = getDocIdSet(reader); if (!(result instanceof SortedVIntList)) and (result.cardinality() < (reader.maxDoc() / 9))) { return new SortedVIntList(result); } return result; } {code} (One minor problem with this is that DocIdSet does not have a cardinality() method and that SortedVIntList does not have a constructor for a DocIdSet.) The question is: how about adding such a getDocIdSetForCache() method to Filter? Or is there a better place for this functionality, for example in CachingWrapperFilter? > Things to be done now that Filter is independent from BitSet > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: LUCENE-1187 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1187 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: contrib/*, Search > Reporter: Paul Elschot > Assignee: Michael Busch > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 2.4 > > Attachments: BooleanFilter20080325.patch, > ChainedFilterAndCachingFilterTest.patch, Contrib20080325.patch, > Contrib20080326.patch, Contrib20080427.patch, javadocsZero2Match.patch, > lucene-1187.patch, lucene-1187.patch, OpenBitSetDISI-20080322.patch > > > (Aside: where is the documentation on how to mark up text in jira comments?) > The following things are left over after LUCENE-584 : > For Lucene 3.0 Filter.bits() will have to be removed. > There is a CHECKME in IndexSearcher about using ConjunctionScorer to have the > boolean behaviour of a Filter. > I have not looked into Filter caching yet, but I suppose there will be some > room for improvement there. > Iirc the current core has moved to use OpenBitSetFilter and that is probably > what is being cached. > In some cases it might be better to cache a SortedVIntList instead. > Boolean logic on DocIdSetIterator is already available for Scorers (that > inherit from DocIdSetIterator) in the search package.
