Hi,

Given a boolean query and/or a filter, what is the best way to see if there
is at least one matching document?

I tried a simple hit collector which sets a flag on the first Collect
method. Ideally I would want to stop collecting at that point but I couldn't
find a way of doing that.
I also tried: TopDocs docs = _searcher.Search(query, filter, 1), but it
seems to iterate through all matches as docs.totalHits is set the the actual
number of matches.

So, is there a better way

Regards,
Art
