Shai Erera commented on LUCENE-1593: ------------------------------------ bq. But actually: the thing calling scoresDocsInOrder will in fact only be calling that method if it intends to use the scorer as a toplevel scorer Are you sure? The way I understand it IndexSearcher will call weight.getQuery().scoresDocInOrder() in the search methods that create a Collector, in order to know whether to create an "in-order" Collector or "out-of-order" Collector. At this point it does not know whether it will use the scorer as a top-level or not. Unless we duplicate the logic of doSearch into those methods (i.e. if there is a filter know it'll be used as a top-level Collector), but I really don't like to do that. I still think there are two issues here that need to be addressed separately: # Allowing IS as well as any Collector-creating code to create the right Collector instance - in/out-of order. That is achievable by adding scoresDocsInOrder() to Query, defaulting to false (for back-compat) and override in all Query implementations, where it makes sense. For BQ I think it should remain false, with a TODO to change in 3.0 (see second bullet). # Clearly separate between BS and BS2, i.e. have BW create one of them explicitly without wrapping or anything. That is achievable, I think, by adding topScorer() to Weight and call it from IS. Then in BW we do whatever BS2.scorer(Collector) does today, hopefully we can inline it in BW. But that can happen only in 3.0. We then change scoresDocsInOrder to return false only if BQ was set to return docs out of order as well as there are 0 required scorers and < 32 prohibited scorers (the same logic as in BS2.score(Collector). BTW, #2 above does not mean we cannot optimize initCountingSumScorer - if we add start() to DISI then in BS2 we can override it to initialize CSS, and calling start() from IS.doSearch before it starts iterating. In score(Collector) it will check if it's initialized only once, so it should be ok?

The plan is: > # Ensure that IndexSearcher returns segements in increasing doc Id order, > instead of numDocs(). > # Change TSDC and TFC's code to not use the doc id as a tie breaker. New docs > will always have larger ids and therefore cannot compete. > # Pre-populate HitQueue with sentinel values in TSDC (score = Float.NEG_INF) > and remove the check if reusableSD == null. > # Also move to use "changing top" and then call adjustTop(), in case we > update the queue. > # some methods in Sort explicitly add SortField.FIELD_DOC as a "tie breaker" > for the last SortField. But, doing so should not be necessary (since we > already break ties by docID), and is in fact less efficient (once the above > optimization is in). > # Investigate PQ - can we deprecate insert() and have only > insertWithOverflow()? Add a addDummyObjects method which will populate the > queue without "arranging" it, just store the objects in the array (this can > be used to pre-populate sentinel values)? > I will post a patch as well as some perf measurements as soon as I have them. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
