FYI: Fieldable is an interface. Field is indeed final, but AbstractField implements most everything in Fieldable and is not final, so if you want to customize, just be aware of the small issues with Document.getFields() method versus Document.getFieldables()

Hashtable based Document

                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-671
             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Index, Search
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0, 1.9
            Reporter: Chris
            Priority: Minor


I've attached a Document based on a hashtable and a performance test case. It performs better in most cases (all but enumeration by my measurement), but likely uses a larger memory footprint. The Document testcase will fail since it accesses the "fields" variable directly and gets confused when it's not the list it expected it to be.

If nothing else we would be interested in at least being able to extend Document, which is currently declared final. (Anyone know the performance gains on declaring a class final?) Currently we have to maintain a copy of lucene which has methods and classes definalized and overriden.

There are other classes as well that could be declared non-final (Fieldable comes to mind) since it's possible to make changes for project specific situations in those aswell but that's off-topic.
