------------------------------------

             Summary: Highlighter mergeContiguousFragments shouldn't merge 
0-score fragments
                 Key: LUCENE-6471
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-6471
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: modules/highlighter
            Reporter: David Smiley
            Priority: Minor


Highlighter.mergeContiguousFragments merges adjacent fragments it is given.  
But it is given a list of fragments that do not necessarily have embedded 
highlights (e.g. have a score of 0), and so it could grow a fragment 
needlessly.  I never figured out why this old highlighter keeps around such 
fragments instead of eagerly tossing them when the fragment completes, which is 
what I think it should do.  That would address this problem and might make 
things faster.  I'm not sure if any highlighter user wants the non-scoring 
fragments though.
