I just ment in contrast with Mike's comment about iterating over
all the
stored fields to support the "post-faceting" situation (but frankly
i'm
not sure that i undersatnd what the "post-faceting" situation is,
so feel
free to ignore me)
I'm not sure either--I assume that it means facet on a DocSet that is
limited to the the representative doc in each collapsed group. Or is
it faceting within each group?
If so, then all documents in the result set needs to be collapsed to
determine this list of docs (which perhaps is not too inefficient?).
The way I do field collapsing is simply gathering documents and
collapsing them until I've gathered X groups for user display (which
usually involves looking at a few tens of documents more, rather than
the entire 3,000,000+ result set).
I'm going to bow out now, as I don't think I understand what exactly
we're talking about <g>
