Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-2723:
-------------------------------------

by the way, i tried an experiment... i don't much trust the +nebraska +state 
results in general,
but the +unit +state is more stable and I ran this one twice to be sure... i 
think we should investigate more

in advance() I changed:

{noformat}
    // not found in current block, seek underlying stream
    BulkPostingsEnum.JumpResult jumpResult = docsEnum.jump(target, count);
    if (jumpResult != null) {
{noformat}

to:

{noformat}
    // not found in current block, seek underlying stream
    BulkPostingsEnum.JumpResult jumpResult;
    if (target - doc > docDeltas.length*4 && (jumpResult = 
docsEnum.jump(target, count)) != null) {
{noformat}

{noformat}
Query  QPS branch   QPS patch  Pct diff
    +nebraska +state       75.91       84.46     11.3%
        +unit +state        8.67       10.01     15.4%

Query  QPS branch   QPS patch  Pct diff
    +nebraska +state       73.23       80.27      9.6%
        +unit +state        8.66       10.00     15.5%

> 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...
