Shon Vella commented on LUCENE-1604:
------------------------------------
Will look at adding the option to turn on as time permits. Shouldn't be too
hard except as it affects the unit tests - ferreting out all the tests that
need to be duplicated with it on and with it off could get very tedious.
> Stop creating huge arrays to represent the absense of field norms

> Creating and keeping around huge arrays that hold a constant value is very

> reference standpoint. It would be much more efficient to use null to
> represent a missing norms table.
