                 Key: LUCENE-1125
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1125
             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Index
    Affects Versions: 2.3
            Reporter: Michael McCandless
            Assignee: Michael McCandless
             Fix For: 2.3


I've been doing some "final" performance testing of 2.3RC1 and
uncovered a fairly serious bug that adds a large fixed CPU cost when
documents have any term vector enabled fields.

The bug does not affect correctness, just performance.

Basically, for every document, we were calling Arrays.fill(0) on a
large (32 KB) byte array when in fact we only needed to zero a small
part of it.  This only happens if term vectors are turned on, and is
especially devastating for small documents.
