But having one huge field would also cause performance problems. When you get into the high cardinality use case almost all the time is going be spent looking up the BytesRefs. You'll have to do that with either JSON facet or export. JSON facet still needs to lookup the ByteRef's after the aggregation to send them out. So it's going to be slow in either case.

One of the reasons for this is that SolrStream is the only stream source that uses an HttpSolrClient rather then a CloudSolrClient.

Then let's make this the default behavior in 9.0. The reason I like "tiered" is that the plist sets up a middle tier of aggregator nodes, one per aliased collection. This happens because of how the facet expression works, which is to setup a CloudSolrClient and push the facet call to the collection. Calling it "parallel" makes it sound like it's just threaded on the same node, which would not scale nearly as well. But, since the parameter is going away anyway I'm not sure it matters that much.

The auto-wrapping only happens if the facet expression only requests metrics that are safe to rollup, namely count, sum, min, max, or avg. If while attempting to auto-wrap, we encounter a metric that isn't safe to rollup, the impl. falls back to non-parallel. In terms of being simpler, I'd counter that the current impl. is not simple for users with collection alias and that the additions here are not very complicated. The diff of {{FacetStream}} looks big because of code reformatting to match our standard as there were many improperly formatted sections in this file. I'm happy to undo that and just add my changes if that makes a review easier, I think you'll see the changes are quite simple.

However, I prefer the parameter be named {{plist}} or {{parallel}} instead of {{tiered}} if you're ok with that? The reason it is opt-out now is because I didn't want users to have to explicitly specify this when using a collection alias, i.e. opt-in requires changes to existing apps to make use of this.

It sounds like a change was made directly to the facet expression so that it behaves differently. In general with streaming expressions I like to create wrapper classes, or new implementations, where possible, rather than changing the behavior of existing functions. I like to do this for several reasons: 1) Lower risk. There are applications in the field that use the facet expression heavily. Changing the behavior of the facet expression adds more risk that a bug or behavioral change impacts existing apps. 2) Using composition keeps the class implementations simpler. 3) The design of streaming expressions is really all about composable functions. So in keeping with that design if possible I usually choose to add a new function rather than changing behavior of existing functions. 4) Speed of development. When adding new functions you can move fast and break things, without breaking any existing applications. The amount of review and testing I would do for a change to the facet expression is 10x the amount of review and testing I would do for a new function. That all being said, if there is some important reason to change the facet expression directly then of course it can be done. was (Author: joel.bernstein): A couple of thoughts based mainly on the description of the PR.

I was comparing Streaming Expressions, prior to drill, when I mentioned sending all tuples to the aggregator nodes. Streaming Expressions, prior to drill, could use the export handler to send all sorted tuples to the aggregator node and accomplish high cardinality aggregation.

Facet will always be faster than drill except in the high cardinality use case. Drill really shines in the high cardinality use case though. Rather than sending all tuples to the aggregator node, and using the rollup Stream, drill can first aggregate inside of the export handler and compress the result significantly before hitting the network. And drill never runs out of memory, where faceting will eventually run out of memory. More work is coming that improves the export handler performance by about 300%.
