Paul Elschot commented on LUCENE-1252:
--------------------------------------
There is no patch for now.
HitCollectors should not be affected by this, as they would only be involved
when a real match is found, and that, when position info is needed, necessarily
involves the positions.
Extending this with a cheap score brings another issue: should a cheap score be
given for a document that might match, but in the end does not really match
when positions are used? At the moment, I don't think so: score values are
normally cheap to compute, but accessing positions is not cheap.
> Avoid using positions when not all required terms are present

> Key: LUCENE-1252
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1252
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: Search
> Reporter: Paul Elschot
> Priority: Minor
>
> In the Scorers of queries with (lots of) Phrases and/or (nested) Spans,
> currently next() and skipTo() will use position information even when other
> parts of the query cannot match because some required terms are not present.
> This could be avoided by adding some methods to Scorer that relax the
> postcondition of next() and skipTo() to something like "all required terms
> are present, but no position info was checked yet", and implementing these
> methods for Scorers that do conjunctions: BooleanScorer, PhraseScorer, and
> SpanScorer/NearSpans.
