Mayya Sharipova commented on LUCENE-8727:
-----------------------------------------
Some comments about design option # 1.
I think we should just share min competitive score(it could be AtomicLong or
something) between collectors, and not the top hits. The reason for not
sharing top hits is that Collectors expect leaves in [the sequential
order|[https://github.com/apache/lucene-solr/blob/master/lucene/core/src/java/org/apache/lucene/search/TopScoreDocCollector.java#L240-L242]].
And if it happens that we start processing leaves with higher doc Ids first in
the executor, we may populate the global priority queue with docs with higher
ids and set the global min competitive score to the next float. Next, when we
process leaves with smaller doc Ids, as our global priority queue is full and
as we use this updated global min competitive score, we will have to skip all
these docs with smaller doc Ids even if they have the same scores as docs with
higher doc Ids and should be selected instead.
If all collectors have their own priority queues, they will make sure first to
fill them to N and only after that set min competitive score.

> If IndexSearcher is configured with an executor, then the top docs for each
> slice are computed separately before being merged once the top docs for all
> slices are computed. With block-max WAND this is a bit of a waste of
> resources: it would be better if an increase of the min competitive score
> could help skip non-competitive hits on every slice and not just the current
> one.
