Aaron Daubman commented on LUCENE-4100:
---------------------------------------

Thanks for the update [~spo] - My particular use-case seems tailor made for 
this. I have several decently large (10-30G indices) solr instances, all of 
which run in read-only mode and are created ~2x a day via a snapshot process 
that rolls the index out to load-balanced servers. Several of these instances 
routinely match 30-80% (custom MLT-like queries) of the 2-25M docs in the index 
per-query, so efficient scoring would be a huge win here.

I already have to patch and custom-build solr for our use (until I get around 
to creating required tests to haver SOLR-2052 accepted) and am wondering if you 
have any thoughts/guidance on trying out your patch?

The main use-case is from a custom extension of QueryComponent that overrides 
perpare() and essentially builds up a custom boosted boolean query and uses 
rb.setQueryString and rb.setFilters...

> At Berlin Buzzwords 2012, I will be presenting 'maxscore', an efficient 
> algorithm first published in the IR domain in 1995 by H. Turtle & J. Flood, 
> that I find deserves more attention among Lucene users (and developers).
> I implemented a proof of concept and did some performance measurements with 
> example queries and lucenebench, the package of Mike McCandless, resulting in 
> very significant speedups.
> This ticket is to get started the discussion on including the implementation 
> into Lucene's codebase. Because the technique requires awareness about it 
> from the Lucene user/developer, it seems best to become a contrib/module 
> package so that it consciously can be chosen to be used.
