Mark Miller commented on LUCENE-1997:
-------------------------------------
If this is about ease of use, its pretty easy to return Comparable to the
fieldcache, add a Comparable fieldcomparator, and let users that need it
(havn't seen the clamoring yet though) just implement getComparable(String).
Its not that hard to support that with a single queue either.
Its still my opinion that users that need this are advanced enough to look at
the provided impls and figure it out pretty quick. Its not rocket science, and
each method impls is generally a couple simple lines of code.

> Spinoff from recent "lucene 2.9 sorting algorithm" thread on java-dev,
> where a simpler (non-segment-based) comparator API is proposed that
> gathers results into multiple PQs (one per segment) and then merges
> them in the end.
> I started from John's multi-PQ code and worked it into
> contrib/benchmark so that we could run perf tests. Then I generified
> the Python script I use for running search benchmarks (in
> contrib/benchmark/sortBench.py).
> The script first creates indexes with 1M docs (based on
> SortableSingleDocSource, and based on wikipedia, if available). Then
> it runs various combinations:
> * Index with 20 balanced segments vs index with the "normal" log
> segment size
> * Queries with different numbers of hits (only for wikipedia index)
> * Different top N
> * Different sorts (by title, for wikipedia, and by random string,
> random int, and country for the random index)
> For each test, 7 search rounds are run and the best QPS is kept. The
> script runs singlePQ then multiPQ, and records the resulting best QPS
> for each and produces table (in Jira format) as output.
