Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-1592:
---------------------------------------
I think deprecation is to do now (before 3.0), so why move this out?
I looked into the source code in trunk, this method is used nowhere,
deprecating it should be no problem:
{code}
@deprecated Use {...@link IndexReader#terms(Term)} to
create a new TermEnum. This method is not performant.
{code}
> fix or deprecate TermsEnum.skipTo

> Key: LUCENE-1592
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1592
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Index
> Reporter: Michael McCandless
> Priority: Minor
>
> This method is a trap: it looks legitimate but it has hideously poor
> performance (simple linear scan implemented in the TermsEnum base class since
> none of the concrete impls override it with a more efficient implementation).
> The least we should do for 2.9 is deprecate the method with a strong warning
> about its performance.
