Earwin Burrfoot commented on LUCENE-2447:
-----------------------------------------

Is creating MultiSearcher/MultiReader per-request too heavy? I thought these 
were pretty lightweight.
You can also stuff everything into the same index and use cached filters.

> Add support for subsets of searchables inside a 
> MultiSearcher/ParallelMultiSearcher instance's methods at runtime

> Here's the situation: We have a site with a fair few amount of indexes that 
> we're using MultiSearcher/ParallelMultiSearcher for, but the users can select 
> an arbitrary permutation of indexes to search.  For example (contrived, but 
> illustratory): the site has indexes numbered 1 - 10; user A wants to search 
> in all 10; user B wants to search indexes 1, 2 and 3, user C wants to search 
> even-numbered indexes.  From Lucene 3.0.1, the only way to do this is to 
> continually instantiate a new MultiSearcher based on every permutation of 
> indexes that a user wants, which is not ideal at all.
> What I've done is add a new parameter to all methods in MultiSearcher that 
> use the searchables array (docFreq, search, rewrite and 
> createDocFrequencyMap), a Set<Searchable> which is checked for isEmpty() and 
> contains() for every iteration over the searchables[].  The actual logic has 
> been moved into these methods and the old methods have become overloads that 
> pass a Collections.emptySet() into those methods, so I do not expect there to 
> be a very noticeable performance impact as a result of this modification, if 
> it's measurable at all.
> I didn't modify the test for MultiSearcher very much, just enough to 
> illustrate the that subsetting of the search results works, since no other 
> logic has changed.  If I need to do more for the testing, let me know and 
> I'll do it.
> I've attached the patches for MultiSearcher.java, ParallelMultiSearcher.java 
> and TestMultiSearcher.java.
