Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-3433:
-------------------------------------

Simon: I think it would be a really nice feature.

Imagine someone that has a large collection and maybe quite a few docvalues 
fields:
it would be nice if you have a fixed int64 docvalues for it to just be a 
mmap'ed readLong() for example.

I think in a lot of cases the memory resident random-access that we have now is 
going to be great, e.g.
if someone wants to use it for a scoring factor and its going to be super-hot.

but in other more advanced cases (especially if you have many of them or access 
is relatively infrequent)
it would be a nice option to have available where currently you have to deal 
with the downsides of 
'fake terms' with a payload or stored fields.

> There should be a way to get specific IndexDocValues by going through the 
> Directory rather than loading all of the values into memory.
