Hi Paul, Yes, that is exactly what I was trying to say in my earlier example of acessing documents in a chronologically sorted order (which might be the same as index insert order). Thanks for confirming it.
Otis ----- Original Message ---- From: Paul Elschot IndexReader.doc(docId) for more than 2 docs is normally best done with increasing docId. This reduces disk head movement, since the stored docs are in that order. When Hits() its used, it is tempting to retrieve docs in scoring order via the Hits.doc() method, but that is probably not the best order for retrieval speed.
