             Summary: Make SortingLeafReader sort postings lists more 
efficiently
                 Key: LUCENE-6469
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-6469
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Adrien Grand
            Assignee: Adrien Grand
            Priority: Minor


We could use a bit set to sort postings lists (similarly to BS1) instead of 
loading the postings list to an int[] and then sorting them using TimSort. I'm 
not totally clear whether it would be faster or slower but at least it would 
have a better worst-case memory usage.
