Hi, Thanks for the very interesting idea!
Currently we use lucene 2.3.2 and we just use default merge policy (at any time we have a few segments and after some accumulation small segments are merged into big ones). I need to double check if docId can reflect doc age. But I have one concern: docId may not reflect true age interval, like docId difference by 2 may reflect 2m or 1h. If no better choice I may just use payload and adapt a few query classes?

Smaller docIDs mean younger documents. Maybe this works for you? simon On Wed, Nov 30, 2011 at 9:08 PM, Zhang, Lisheng <lisheng.zh...@broadvision.com> wrote: > Thanks very much for your helps!
