Certainly others do agree with you to some degree that this case is
on the cost/benefit borderline. Again, this case wasn't really the
point.
My point was it feels to me that you have, on occasion, been over-

Please chill. You are inferring something that was not implied. You
may think it lacks perspective and respect (I disagree on both), but
it certainly doesn't lack in correctness.
First, depending on how you measure it, 2x speedup equates to a 50%
reduction in time. In my review of the chang
While I agree in general that excessive optimization at the expense
of code clarity is undesirable, you are overstating the point. 2X is
a ridiculous threshold to apply to something as performance critical
as a full text search engine. If search was twice as slow, lucene

As a followup, I think when people report timing numbers they should
be done on a *nix, so that you can report, real, user, system and
wait for io times.
Even with this, there are other issues (JVM compilation times, GC
times), etc. that will affect the relevancy of the timings.

I am not sure these numbers matter. I think they are skewed because
you are probably running too short a test, and the index is in memory
(or OS cache).
Once you use a real index that needs to read/write from the disk, the
percentage change will be negligible.
This is the problem with man
