> remove codec byte[] cloning in BinaryDocValues api
> --------------------------------------------------

> Key: LUCENE-5393
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5393
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Task
> Reporter: Robert Muir
>
> I can attack this (at least in trunk/5.0, we can discuss if/when it should
> happen for 4.x).
> See the mailing list for more discussion. this was done intentionally, to
> prevent lots of reuse bugs.
> The issue is very simple, lots of old fieldcache-type logic has it because
> things used to be immutable Strings or because they rely on things being in a
> large array:
> {code}
> byte[] b1 = get(doc1);
> byte[] b2 = get(doc2);
> // some code that expects b1 to be unchanged.
> {code}
> Currently each get() internally is cloning the bytes, for safety. but this is
> really bad for code like faceting (which is going to decompress integers and
> never needs to save bytes), and its even stupid for things like
> fieldcomparator (where in general its doing comparisons, and only rarely
> needs to save a copy of the bytes for later).
> I can address it with lots of tests (i added a lot in general anyway since
> the time of adding this TODO, but more would make me feel safer).
