I have a bunch of fields that have single values such as "date", "id", "flagged"
I've noticed that if I Index Tokenize them, my queries are much faster than if
they are Untokenized.
In My query, I'm using a BooleanQuery or RangeFilter/Query and
querying/sorting/filterling based on these values.
Example uses:
SortField minuteSort = new SortField("date", SortField.STRING, reverse);
filter = new RangeFilter("id", lowerId, upperId, false, false);
booleanQuery.Add(new TermQuery(new Term("flagged", "true")),
BooleanClause.Occur.MUST_NOT);
Two Questions:
1. Is there a cost at search-time in making fields Tokenized that don't need
to be? I assume there's a cost at Index time, but I'm not too worried about
the Index cost.
2. Should fields that are used in my 3 example lines above by Tokenized? If
not, why am I seeing a huge performance difference when they are UnTokenized?
I'm really not running any queries that require some sort of analysis on these
fields other than that they are indexed as-s
