Adrien Grand commented on LUCENE-3892:
--------------------------------------
I backported Mike's changes to the {{BlockPacked}} codec and tried to
understand why it was slower than {{Block}}...
The use of {{java.nio.*Buffer}} seemed to be the bottleneck
({{ByteBuffer.asLongBuffer}} and {{ByteBuffer.getLong}} especially are _very_
slow) of the decoding step so I switched back to decoding from long[] (instead
of LongBuffer) and added direct decoding from byte[] to avoid having to convert
the bytes to longs before decoding.
Tests passed with -Dtests.postingsformat=BlockPacked. Here are the results of
the benchmark (unfortunately, it started before Mike committed r1370179):

Mike, Billy, could you check that {{BLockPacked}} is at least as fast as
{{Block}} on your computer too?
> Add a useful intblock postings format (eg, FOR, PFOR, PFORDelta,

> On the flex branch we explored a number of possible intblock
> encodings, but for whatever reason never brought them to completion.
> There are still a number of issues opened with patches in different
> states.
> Initial results (based on prototype) were excellent (see
> http://blog.mikemccandless.com/2010/08/lucene-performance-with-pfordelta-codec.html
> ).
> I think this would make a good GSoC project.
