Marvin Humphrey commented on LUCENE-1896:
-----------------------------------------
> at what I am trusting is essentially no cost.
Here's the snippet from TermQuery.score() where queryNorm() actually
gets applied to each document's score:
{code}
float raw = // compute tf(f)*weight
f < SCORE_CACHE_SIZE // check cache
? scoreCache[f] // cache hit
: getSimilarity().tf(f)*weightValue; // cache miss
{code}
At this point, queryNorm() has already been factored into weightValue (and
scoreCache). It happens during setup. You can either scale weightValue by
queryNorm() during setup or not -- the per-document computational cost is
unaffected.
