Shai Erera commented on LUCENE-2548:
------------------------------------
Why remove Term? I think it's a nice API, and for most cases, a term will still
be a Term and not a BytesRef + Field. Isn't it a convenient class? Is there an
alternative one?
> Remove all interning of field names from flex API

> Key: LUCENE-2548
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2548
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Uwe Schindler
> Fix For: 4.0
>
>
> In previous versions of Lucene, interning of fields was important to minimize
> string comparison cost when iterating TermEnums, to detect changes in field
> name. As we separated field names from terms in flex, no query compares field
> names anymore, so the whole performance problematic interning can be removed.
> I will start with doing this, but we need to carefully review some places
> e.g. in preflex codec.
> Maybe before this issue we should remove the Term class completely. :-)
