Adrien Grand resolved LUCENE-4643. ---------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed > PackedInts: convenience classes to write blocks of packed ints > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-4643 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4643 > Project: Lucene - Core > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Adrien Grand > Assignee: Adrien Grand > Priority: Minor > Attachments: LUCENE-4643.patch, LUCENE-4643.patch > > > It is often useful to divide a packed stream into fixed blocks which are all > compressed independently: > * if your sequence of ints is very large, you won't have to buffer > everything into memory to compute the required number of bits per value, > * the compression ratio will be better in case of rare extreme values. > The only drawback compared to the original PackedInts API is that the stream > cannot be directly used to deserialize a random-access PackedInts.Reader (but > for sequential access, this is just fine). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
