Bryan Duxbury updated THRIFT-110:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: thrift-110-v2.patch

I've reversed the order of ids and types in structs in java in this patch. The 
ruby version included still has the ids and types reversed, but as it turns out 
I accidentally deleted the spec I was working on, let's just make sure this 
stuff is persisted somewhere :)

> A more compact format

> Thrift is not very compact in writing out data as (say protobuf) . It does 
> not have the concept of variable length integers and various other 
> optimizations possible . In Solr we use a lot of such optimizations to make a 
> very compact payload. Thrift has a lot common with that format.
> It is all done in a single class
> http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/lucene/solr/trunk/src/java/org/apache/solr/common/util/NamedListCodec.java?revision=685640&view=markup
> The other optimizations include writing type/value  in same byte, very fast 
> writes of Strings, externalizable strings etc 
> We could use a thrift format for non-java clients and I would like to see it 
> as compact as the current java version
