I would like to remove our mod to Lucene by taking advantage of the scorer API and writing our own Similarity class that has a method to transform an int rank to a float boost. Unfortunately, byteToFloat() is private, so my Similarity class cannot make use of it.
Try Similarity.decodeNorm(). It's public and faster too. byteToFloat is just the uncached, internal version of this.
