enable thresholded field compression for certain field types
-------------------------------------------------------------
Key: SOLR-45
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-45
Project: Solr
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: update
Reporter: Mike Klaas
Assigned To: Mike Klaas
Priority: Minor
Attachments: compress_patch.diff
Adds a CompressableField abstract base class from which fieldtypes may inherit.
Fields of these types may specify compressed="true" in the field definition to
turn on compression. The field type takes an optional compressThreshold
parameter which will only turn on compression for fields whose internal
representations of greater or equal to a given size.
TextField and StrField inherit from CompressableField
Comments? (my main issue is that it woudl be nice to be able to set
compressThreshold at the field level. Since we can't without modifying fields
to accept named parameters, perhaps it would be preferrable to only allow
compress=true/false to be set at the fieldtype leve)
