--------------------------------------------
Woops, thanks Billy, I'll merge w/ my patch.
Sorry, test failures are expected until I get payloads working ... I'll do that
next but will take some time. Payloads always get tricky :)
> New FixedPostingsFormat for less overhead than SepPostingsFormat

> I've worked out the start at a new postings format that should have
> less overhead for fixed-int[] encoders (For,PFor)... using ideas from
> the old bulk branch, and new ideas from Robert.
> It's only a start: there's no payloads support yet, and I haven't run
> Lucene's tests with it, except for one new test I added that tries to
> be a thorough PostingsFormat tester (to make it easier to create new
> postings formats). It does pass luceneutil's performance test, so
> it's at least able to run those queries correctly...
> Like Lucene40, it uses two files (though once we add payloads it may
> be 3). The .doc file interleaves doc delta and freq blocks, and .pos
> has position delta blocks. Unlike sep, blocks are NOT shared across
> terms; instead, it uses block encoding if there are enough ints to
> encode, else the same Lucene40 vInt format. This means low-freq terms
> (< 128 = current default block size) are always vInts, and high-freq
> terms will have some number of blocks, with a vInt final block.
> Skip points are only recorded at block starts.
