I am using SolrCloud 7.2.1. My understanding is that setting docvalues=true would optimize faceting, grouping and sorting; but for a field to be searchable it needs to be indexed=true. However I was dumbfounded today when I executed a successful search on a field with below configuration: <field name="myField" type="pint" indexed="false" stored="false" docValues="true"/> However the searches don't always complete and often time out.
My question is... Is searching on docValues=true and indexed=false fields supported? If yes, in which cases? What are the pitfalls (as I see that searches, although sometimes successful are atrociously slow and quite often time out)?
