             Summary: Should FieldInfos always use a dense encoding?
                 Key: LUCENE-8033
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8033
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Wish
            Reporter: Adrien Grand


Spin-off from LUCENE-8018. The dense vs. sparse encoding logic of FieldInfos 
introduces  complexity. Given that the sparse encoding is only used when less 
than 1/16th of fields are used, which sounds uncommon to me, maybe we should 
use a dense encoding all the time?
