Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-1470:
--------------------------------------------
bq. My approach in principle does the same, but the values are simply devided
into bytes.
I do very much like that your approach requires no "application or
type-specific knowledge" on what might make good ranges. Ie, it's generic, and
so any type that can be cast into long and back w/o losing any information, can
make use of this.
> Add TrieRangeQuery to contrib

> Key: LUCENE-1470
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1470
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: contrib/*
> Affects Versions: 2.4
> Reporter: Uwe Schindler

> According to the thread in java-dev
> (http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/lucene/java-dev/67807 and
> http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/lucene/java-dev/67839), I want to
> include my fast numerical range query implementation into lucene
> contrib-queries.
> I implemented (based on RangeFilter) another approach for faster
> RangeQueries, based on longs stored in index in a special format.
> The idea behind this is to store the longs in different precision in index
> and partition the query range in such a way, that the outer boundaries are
> search using terms from the highest precision, but the center of the search
> Range with lower precision. The implementation stores the longs in 8
> different precisions (using a class called TrieUtils). It also has support
> for Doubles, using the IEEE 754 floating-point "double format" bit layout
> with some bit mappings to make them binary sortable. The approach is used in
> rather big indexes, query times are even on low performance desktop
> computers <<100 ms (!) for very big ranges on indexes with 500000 docs.
> I called this RangeQuery variant and format "TrieRangeRange" query because
> the idea looks like the well-known Trie structures (but it is not identical
> to real tries, but algorithms are related to it).
