Yonik Seeley commented on LUCENE-2232:
--------------------------------------

bq. Has it been tried to unroll getVInt()? Unrolling getVInt into 5 explicit 
getByte()'s has the advantage that the later conditional jumps are easier to 
predict.

IIRC, there was a JIRA issue in the past that tried this.  It showed a speedup 
in micro-benchmarks but a slowdown when it was actually used in lucene for 
something like termdocs.
