Hi Vadim, A Weight is the specialization of a query for a given index reader. It has access to index statistics that will help compute scores for instance.
A Scorer is the specialization of a weight for a given segment. It can iterate over matches and compute scores. The cost of a scorer is the expected number of matching documents for this scorer. It is useful in order to run operations in the optimal order Your observation of the behaviour of your BooleanQuery with SHOULD clauses looks wrong: the score of the boolean query is the sum of the scores of the matching sub queries.
