Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-1470: --------------------------------------- bq. As a baseline, how large is an index with just the normal fields? This is not so simply to check out, I do not have such an index available and it takes long time to reindex :) The 3 variants were generated last night on the X4600 monster machine, which took 2 hours there (in parallel). But as the step from 8 to 4 bits was about 300 MBytes space more and the step doubled the number of terms, the index without the numeric fields (if its still linear) should be about (!) 4.5 GiB. Sometimes, when changing program code of "live" systems where users are working on (sometimes you cannot avoid it), I feel really like doing a open-heart surgery :-) > 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 > Assignee: Michael McCandless > Attachments: LUCENE-1470.patch, LUCENE-1470.patch, LUCENE-1470.patch, > LUCENE-1470.patch, LUCENE-1470.patch, LUCENE-1470.patch, LUCENE-1470.patch > > > 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.
