I know voting has started, but I just thought of this... How about a compressed index option? Something simple like delta or golomb coding would be fine... There's a java implementation of a variant at: http://www.usenix.org/publications/login/2000-4/features/java.html
It'll be a performance hit, but I'm dealing with enormous indexes and saving space would help. A compressed index would be especially helpful in the initial (pre-optimization) index building since that takes up major disk space. A user could then unroll the optimized/compressed index into a standard uncompressed one. -Eytan -----Original Message----- From: Peter Carlson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, May 20, 2002 11:19 AM To: Lucene Developers List Subject: Call for features in next release Hi, I would like be able to have the features that we are planning on having for the next release.
