Andrzej Bialecki commented on SOLR-1632: ----------------------------------------- I'm not sure what approach you are referring to. Following the terminology in that thread, this implementation follows the approach where there is a single merged big idf map at the master, and it's sent out to slaves on each query. However, when exactly this merging and sending happens is implementation-specific - in the ExactDFSource it happens on every query, but I hope the API can support other scenarios as well. > Distributed IDF > --------------- > > Key: SOLR-1632 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1632 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: search > Affects Versions: 1.5 > Reporter: Andrzej Bialecki > Attachments: distrib.patch > > > Distributed IDF is a valuable enhancement for distributed search across > non-uniform shards.
