fq vs q parameter

2013-06-19 Thread Learner 
Hi,

I am currently using the below configuration in one of my handler and I was
thinking of removing the values from q parameter and including as a part of
fq parameter.

Can someone let me know if there is any performance improvement when using
fq parameter compared to q? 

  str name=q
(
  _query_:{!dismax qf=person_name_lname_i v=$fps_lname}^8.3 OR
)

  /str
/lst
  lst name=appends
  str name=fq{!switch case='*:*' default=$fq_bbox
v=$fps_latlong}/str
  /lst
  lst name=invariants
  str name=fq_bbox_query_:{!bbox pt=$fps_latlong sfield=geo
d=$fps_dist}^0.2/str
  /lst

Yes, definitely, fq parameters don't affect scoring and can be cached.

I see that your query has boost value so this mean you need Solr to Score on
each match document. 

One of the key difference between q and fq is thats fq will not have any
impact on score. where as having it in q will score each document based on
the Similarity Score.

q and fq both can be cached.
