Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-1496:
---------------------------------------

I think we can close this now. I originally wanted to make this issue dependent 
on the move-to-core issue and close it together with trie.

There is now a private copy of number utils inside LocalLucene, but this should 
be removed soonly and replaced by TrieUtils.

But yonik said: NumberUtils is also only for compatibility reasons in solr. The 
binary format used by NumberUtils is not very index-friendly (because of using 
the full UTF-16 range and so it has the UTF-8 decoding overhead), so it should 
not be used for new deleopments. I suggest to use TrieUtils (or NumberUtils to 
do the same). TrieUtils only uses 7 bits per char and so don't touch the UTF-8 
encoding (it is simply ASCII-only).
