David Smiley commented on LUCENE-4574:
--------------------------------------

But Robert, if I simply change the scenario slightly such that there is more 
than one sort field, TopScoreDocCollector (the specific collector I think you 
actually meant to suggest) is no longer suitable.

Is your concern that the overhead might be too much?  It seems so small to me; 
it only caches the last docid & score pair.

My patch only did the score caching at for 
OneComparatorScoreing[No]MaxScoreCollector but after further experimentation by 
modifying the test to sort on an additional field, it appears that all 
subclasses of TopFieldCollector are affected.

> I was working on a custom ValueSource and did some basic profiling and 
> debugging to see if it was being used optimally.  To my surprise, the value 
> was being fetched twice per document in a row.  This computation isn't 
> exactly cheap to calculate so this is a big problem.  I was able to 
> work-around this problem trivially on my end by caching the last value with

> The 2nd call appears to use some score caching mechanism, which is all well 
> and good, but that same mechanism wasn't used in the first call so there's no 
> cached value to retrieve.
