Jeff Wartes commented on SOLR-6581: ----------------------------------- For what it's worth, I recall having a bad experience with that hint in a Solr 5.4 cluster late last year. I never did dig into why though. I had a similar case where I was collapsing on a highly distinct field, and as Joel indicates, the memory allocation rate was bad enough I had to give up on the whole thing. Joel and I discussed this a little in SOLR-9125 if you're curious. > Efficient DocValues support and numeric collapse field implementations for > Collapse and Expand > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-6581 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-6581 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Joel Bernstein > Assignee: Joel Bernstein > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 5.0, 6.0 > > Attachments: SOLR-6581.patch, SOLR-6581.patch, SOLR-6581.patch, > SOLR-6581.patch, SOLR-6581.patch, SOLR-6581.patch, SOLR-6581.patch, > SOLR-6581.patch, SOLR-6581.patch, SOLR-6581.patch, SOLR-6581.patch, > SOLR-6581.patch, SOLR-6581.patch, SOLR-6581.patch, SOLR-6581.patch, > renames.diff > > > The 4x implementation of the CollapsingQParserPlugin and the ExpandComponent > are optimized to work with a top level FieldCache. Top level FieldCaches have > a very fast docID to top-level ordinal lookup. Fast access to the top-level > ordinals allows for very high performance field collapsing on high > cardinality fields. > LUCENE-5666 unified the DocValues and FieldCache api's so that the top level > FieldCache is no longer in regular use. Instead all top level caches are > accessed through MultiDocValues. > This ticket does the following: > 1) Optimizes Collapse and Expand to use MultiDocValues and makes this the > default approach when collapsing on String fields > 2) Provides an option to use a top level FieldCache if the performance of > MultiDocValues is a blocker. The mechanism for switching to the FieldCache is > a new "hint" parameter. If the hint parameter is set to "top_fc" then the > top-level FieldCache would be used for both Collapse and Expand. > Example syntax: > {code} > fq={!collapse field=x hint=TOP_FC} > {code} > 3) Adds numeric collapse field implementations. > 4) Resolves issue SOLR-6066 > -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
