That's my point... in very large indexes this should not result in any difference at all on average because the terms would be no where near each other. As an example: in a very big index, one wants to independently collect all documents that match "apple" and all documents that match "zebra", which term you seek to first should not matter. -Yonik --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
