Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-1470:
---------------------------------------

bq. NumberUtils in Solr was developed a long time ago, before Parser support in 
the FieldCache, etc (Lucene 1.4). I chose 14 bit numbers to minimize size in 
FieldCache using a StringIndex, and because I didn't understand Lucene prefix 
compression at the time 

The same here :). By the way, the new SortField constructors taking a 
LongParser (LUCENE-1478) as parameter make this very simple. You could so sort 
by the trie encoded field (and do not need to index them separately). Just use 
the LongParser supplied by TrieUtils to sort. No String sorting needed. I only 
wanted to supply static parsers based on TrieUtils for that.

> According to the thread in java-dev 
> (http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/lucene/java-dev/67807 and 
> http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/lucene/java-dev/67839), I want to 
> include my fast numerical range query implementation into lucene 
> contrib-queries.
> I implemented (based on RangeFilter) another approach for faster
> RangeQueries, based on longs stored in index in a special format.
> The idea behind this is to store the longs in different precision in index
> and partition the query range in such a way, that the outer boundaries are
> search using terms from the highest precision, but the center of the search
> Range with lower precision. The implementation stores the longs in 8
> different precisions (using a class called TrieUtils). It also has support
> for Doubles, using the IEEE 754 floating-point "double format" bit layout
> with some bit mappings to make them binary sortable. The approach is used in
> rather big indexes, query times are even on low performance desktop
> computers <<100 ms (!) for very big ranges on indexes with 500000 docs.
> I called this RangeQuery variant and format "TrieRangeRange" query because
> the idea looks like the well-known Trie structures (but it is not identical
> to real tries, but algorithms are related to it).
