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.

> 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.
