If you aren't using index-time document boosting, or field boosting for that field specifically, then set omitNorms="true" for that field in the schema, shut down solr, completely remove the index, and then re-index.
The norms for each field consist of the index-time boost multiplied by the length normalization. -Yonik On 9/10/07, Kyle Banerjee <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I know I'm missing something really obvious, but I'm spinning my > wheels figuring out how to eliminate lengthNorm from the calculations. > > The specific problem I'm trying to solve is that naive queries are > resulting in crummy short records near the top of the list.
