According to the Solr guide about docvalues, it is used in faceting,
sorting, and grouping.
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/DocValues

> In Lucene 4.0, a new approach was introduced. DocValue fields are now
column-oriented fields with a  document-to-value mapping built at index
time. This approach promises to relieve some of the memory requirements of
the fieldCache and make lookups for faceting, sorting, and grouping much
faster.

I'm not sure about other docvalues uses not mentioned here... I'd also like
to know if there are.

Thanks,
Tomoko
