Hi Dave,

facets: 
in you case a solution with one
int[IndexReader.maxDoc()]
fits. For each document number you can store an integer which represents the
facet value.
This is what org.apache.solr.request.UnInvertedField will store in your
case.
(*John* : is there something similar in com.browseengine ? )

But UnInvertedField is designed for fields with more then one value per doc.
Possible to implement directly the solution with int[IndexReader.maxDoc()]
is more easy.
The implementation with int[IndexReader.maxDoc()] should be 150 times faster
then your current solution (and use only 16:300 of your main memory).
But I still wonder that your solution is slow, did you ever use a profiler? 
Enough Xmx? Swapping? Possible your implementation of htFacetResults.get is
slow? Possible same waiting because of synchronized code?
But btw.: Your implementation is not thread save: Think about two
htFacetResults.get before one htFacetResults.put

INDEXORDER:
For INDEXORDER the MultiSearcher and ParallelMultiSearcher use the docNumber
for each index as score.
So the result is 
1. Doc with docNum 1 from first Index
2. Doc with docNum 1 from second Index
..
n. Doc with docNum m from first Index
n+1. Doc with docNum m from second Index
..

I did not know this before. And I was surprised, because the docNum use the
"starts"-Array but the score does not.
So you can use a BitSet to collect the hits. The bits itself are in correct
order.
(and you could index and search without frequencies).
