Many thanks Mike. In a given document, I usually have 15-20 fields out of which 6-7 fields are plain key-value fields.
Typically these key-value fields don't involve prefixes, reflexes, fuzzies etc...It's always a full match. Non-existent values are also not possible during search. In such a case, will it be better for me to use the old TII/TIS formats or the BlockTree format will be much better for K-V access also? -- Ravi On Monday, November 18, 2013, Michael McCandless wrote: > Yes, BlockTreeTermsWriter uses freezeTail to figure out where to draw > the lines for assigning terms to blocks, but to build the trie terms > index it builds a separate FST, by adding in each block's prefix (it > doesn't use the FST's builder pruning to create the trie). > > Mike McCandless > > http://blog.mikemccandless.com > > > On Fri, Nov 15, 2013 at 1:33 PM, Ravikumar Govindarajan > <ravikumar.govindara...@gmail.com <javascript:;>> wrote: > > Yeah, now I kind of understood. > > > > Is this why BlockTreeTermsWriter plugs in it's freezeTail logic of > meeting > > min-nbr of terms per block and building a trie for locating sub-blocks? > > > > -- > > Ravi > > > > > > On Fri, Nov 15, 2013 at 11:17 PM, Michael McCandless < > > luc...@mikemccandless.com <javascript:;>> wrote: > > > >> When you turn on pruning, FST Builder will just remove nodes that > >> don't have a high enough count of input terms traversing through them. > >> E.g. if minSuffixCount1 is 100 then only FST nodes that see >= 100 > >> input terms coming through them, are preserved. > >> > >> You can use this to build a prefix trie instead of the full FST. > >> > >> Creating a custom tail freezer is very expert: it lets you implement > >> arbitrary logic on which nodes are pruned or not. > >> > >> Mike McCandless > >> > >> http://blog.mikemccandless.com > >> > >> > >> On Fri, Nov 15, 2013 at 12:16 PM, Ravikumar Govindarajan > >> <ravikumar.govindara...@gmail.com <javascript:;>> wrote: > >> > I was trying to understand some logic in Builder class of FST. > >> > > >> > The method freezeTail() looks quite hairy.
