Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-1536:
--------------------------------------------
OK, if we do choose to couple, maybe we should name it "useRandomAccess()"?
Another filter optimization that'd be nice to get in is to somehow "know" that
a filter has pre-incorporated deleted documents. This way, once we have a
solution for the "push filter down to all TermScorers", we could have it only
check the filter and not also deleted docs. (This is one of the optimizations
in LUCENE-1594).
We might eventually want/need some sort of external FilterManager that would
handle this (ie, convert a filter to sparse vs random-access as appropriate,
multiply in deleted docs, handle caching, etc).

> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Search
> Affects Versions: 2.4
> Reporter: Michael McCandless
> Assignee: Michael McCandless
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.9

> Attachments: LUCENE-1536.patch

>
> I ran some performance tests, comparing applying a filter via
> random-access API instead of current trunk's iterator API.
> This was inspired by LUCENE-1476, where we realized deletions should
> really be implemented just like a filter, but then in testing found
> that switching deletions to iterator was a very sizable performance
> hit.
> Some notes on the test:
> * Index is first 2M docs of Wikipedia. Test machine is Mac OS X
> 10.5.6, quad core Intel CPU, 6 GB RAM, java 1.6.0_07-b06-153.
> * I test across multiple queries. 1-X means an OR query, eg 1-4
> means 1 OR 2 OR 3 OR 4, whereas +1-4 is an AND query, ie 1 AND 2
> AND 3 AND 4. "u s" means "united states" (phrase search).
> * I test with multiple filter densities (0, 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 75, 90,
> 95, 98, 99, 99.99999 (filter is non-null but all bits are set),
> 100 (filter=null, control)).
> * Method high means I use random-access filter API in
> IndexSearcher's main loop. Method low means I use random-access
> filter API down in SegmentTermDocs (just like deleted docs
> today).
> * Baseline (QPS) is current trunk, where filter is applied as iterator up
> "high" (ie in IndexSearcher's search loop).
