David Smiley commented on LUCENE-2454:
--------------------------------------

Wow, this is absolutely awesome!  This is one of the best enhancement requests 
to Lucene/Solr that I've seen as it brings a real enhancement this is difficult 
/ impossible to do without.

The leading concern I have with this implementation is the size of the number 
of documents in the index as it affects the size of filters and perhaps other 
areas involving creating BitSet's.  I have a scenario in which the 
sub-documents number on average over 100 to each primary document.  These 
sub-documents are at least very small, and they don't share any fields with the 
parent.  For a large scale search situation, an index containing 3M lucene 
documents now needs to store over 300M, and thus require 100x the amount of RAM 
for filter caches as I require now.  Thoughts?
