------------------------------------

bq. Same for BS2.score() and score(HC) - initCountingSumScorer?

I proposed this change, but it is problematic. initCountingSumScorer declares 
throwing IOE, but neither any of the ctors or add() declares it. So I cannot 
add a call to initCountingSumScorer without breaking back-compat, unless:
* I wrap IOE with RE, but I don't like it very much.
* We close our eyes saying it's not very likely that BS2 is used on its own, 
outside BooleanQuery (or BooleanWeight for that matters). I did a short test 
and added IOE, nothing breaks (at least on the 'java' side, haven't checked 
contrib), and I'm pretty confident other code will not break as well, since the 
rest of the methods do throw IOE (like score(), next(), skipTo()), and why 
would you want to initialize BS2 if not to call these?

What do you think about the 2nd option?

> This is a spin-off of LUCENE-1575 and proposes to optimize TSDC and TFC code 
> to remove unnecessary checks. The plan is:
> # Ensure that IndexSearcher returns segements in increasing doc Id order, 
> instead of numDocs().
> # Change TSDC and TFC's code to not use the doc id as a tie breaker. New docs 
> will always have larger ids and therefore cannot compete.
> # Pre-populate HitQueue with sentinel values in TSDC (score = Float.NEG_INF) 
> and remove the check if reusableSD == null.
> # Also move to use "changing top" and then call adjustTop(), in case we 
> update the queue.
> # some methods in Sort explicitly add SortField.FIELD_DOC as a "tie breaker" 
> for the last SortField. But, doing so should not be necessary (since we 
> already break ties by docID), and is in fact less efficient (once the above 
> optimization is in).
> # Investigate PQ - can we deprecate insert() and have only 
> insertWithOverflow()? Add a addDummyObjects method which will populate the 
> queue without "arranging" it, just store the objects in the array (this can 
> be used to pre-populate sentinel values)?
> I will post a patch as well as some perf measurements as soon as I have them.
