Robert Muir updated LUCENE-2723:
--------------------------------

    Attachment: LUCENE-2723.patch

here's an updated patch... i did the easy stuff, 41 nocommits left (i added 
one).

Some notes:
* we should remove the old API everywhere... contrib/misc/HighFreqTerms and 
solr/faceting/UninvertedField are the only users left?
* TermScorer is very scary, we gotta simplify. I don't like not being able to 
understand it.
* For MultiTermQueries, TermQuery shouldnt calculate that per-segment 
docFreq... MTQ "knows" this docFreq, so maybe we need to solve the TermState 
first. i added a nocommit here as it will hurt performance.
* exposing the MMap buffer i dont think is helpful, and dangerous. The Pfor/For 
should work on DataInput.readInt() instead of wrapping bytebuffers as 
intbuffers? anyway this can be dealt with on the pfor/for issue.

> Spinoff from LUCENE-1410.
> The flex DocsEnum has a simple bulk-read API that reads the next chunk
> of docs/freqs.  But it's a poor fit for intblock codecs like FOR/PFOR
> (from LUCENE-1410).  This is not unlike sucking coffee through those
> tiny plastic coffee stirrers they hand out airplanes that,
> surprisingly, also happen to function as a straw.
> As a result we see no perf gain from using FOR/PFOR.
> I had hacked up a fix for this, described at in my blog post at
> http://chbits.blogspot.com/2010/08/lucene-performance-with-pfordelta-codec.html
> I'm opening this issue to get that work to a committable point.
> So... I've worked out a new bulk-read API to address performance
> bottleneck.  It has some big changes over the current bulk-read API:
>   * You can now also bulk-read positions (but not payloads), but, I
>      have yet to cutover positional queries.
>   * The buffer contains doc deltas, not absolute values, for docIDs
>     and positions (freqs are absolute).
>   * Deleted docs are not filtered out.
>   * The doc & freq buffers need not be "aligned".  For fixed intblock
>     codecs (FOR/PFOR) they will be, but for varint codecs (Simple9/16,
>     Group varint, etc.) they won't be.
> It's still a work in progress...
