Yonik Seeley commented on LUCENE-3318: -------------------------------------- The most useful fallback is being able to highlight via re-analyzing the text. It's perfectly scalable and the right tradeoff for some people (say indexing a billion tweets). Other people may not have as strict of time requirements, but may have more strict space requirements. If termvector based highlighting isn't much faster than re-analysis, that's the one we should drop support for. > Sketch out highlighting based on term positions / position iterators > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-3318 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3318 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: modules/highlighter > Affects Versions: Positions Branch > Reporter: Simon Willnauer > Assignee: Mike Sokolov > Fix For: Positions Branch > > > Spinn off from LUCENE-2878. Since we have positions on a large number of > queries already in the branch is worth looking at highlighting as a real > consumer of the API. A prototype is already committed. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
