Hi, Michael :
True, the table is a placeholder right now. I will run my performance tests and update the table in the next day or two. Paul : Thanks for skimming over the code. As John mentioned in his email, we currently use Kamikaze for in memory caching for document hits. The Kamikaze project is aimed to provide a docset implementation using either an Integer array, an OpenBitSet or P4Delta data stucture using the OpenBitSet(lucene) depending on the size and range of the docset. There is a utility function exposed in com.kamikaze.docidset.utils. DocSetFactory.java which can decide on the fly given the parameters as to what underlying datastructure should be employed, however it is not tested thoroughly. Moreover, we have implementations of Logic operators on the underlying docsets which act like filters in Lucene. Again, these can be employed to perform complex logic ops on the underlying docsets which in turn could themselves be composite docsets generated using AND|OR|NOT operations. The implementations do not materialize the interim or final structures but simply expose an iterator to walk the docsets. It would be wonderful if the indexing structure can be augumented using Kamikaze. I can start proactively modifying/improving the implementation/packaging to ease the process. As for storing the term frequencies and positions with this datastructure, let me revisit the literature to see how best, if at all we can assimilate them. Thanks for the interest in Kamikaze and I would keep you posted once I have updated performance numbers on the wiki.
