Tim Sturge commented on LUCENE-1461: ------------------------------------ For small subsets of a large set (in my case around 1000 out of 1million) I suspect a simple open hash may perform better than a binary search. For location blocks (point data) my plan is just to number the grid with N^2 numbers and create a set based on a circle around the desired place. Ideally this solution doesn't degrade with circle size so it's not necessary to do hierarchical prefixes, but I don't have benchmarks to support or refute that assumption. Agreed bounded locations make this much trickier. > Cached filter for a single term field > ------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-1461 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1461 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Tim Sturge > Attachments: DisjointMultiFilter.java, RangeMultiFilter.java > > > These classes implement inexpensive range filtering over a field containing a > single term. They do this by building an integer array of term numbers > (storing the term->number mapping in a TreeMap) and then implementing a fast > integer comparison based DocSetIdIterator. > This code is currently being used to do age range filtering, but could also > be used to do other date filtering or in any application where there need to > be multiple filters based on the same single term field. I have an untested > implementation of single term filtering and have considered but not yet > implemented term set filtering (useful for location based searches) as well. > The code here is fairly rough; it works but lacks javadocs and toString() and > hashCode() methods etc. I'm posting it here to discover if there is other > interest in this feature; I don't mind fixing it up but would hate to go to > the effort if it's not going to make it into Lucene. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
