bq. Its not unrelated, i did extensive benchmarking. That optimization is a 
trap, allowing too many low level implementations (3) once the index gets large.

OK. That's fine. I never liked that offset=0 specialization, i think back at 
that time we felt it might be a good idea. I don't know the issue number 
anymore.

You also removed the negative check in the new Multi implementation; I think 
this was done because of performance, too, right? I am not happy with that, 
because it no longer throws Exception if you try to access stuff off-slice. 
Maybe we can add an "assert" instead?

> We added this api in LUCENE-5729 but we never explored implementing norms 
> with it. These are generally the largest consumer of heap memory and often a 
> real hassle for users.
