Adrien Grand commented on LUCENE-8757:
--------------------------------------
Yes. Top-docs collectors are expected to tie-break by doc ID in case documents
compare equal. Things like TopDocs#merge compare doc IDs explicitly for that
purpose, but Collector#collect implementations just rely on the fact that
documents are collected in order to ignore documents that compare equal to the
current k-th best hit. So we need to sort segments within a slice by docBase in
order to get the same top hits regardless of how slices have been constructed.

> The current segments to threads allocation algorithm always allocates one
> thread per segment. This is detrimental to performance in case of skew in
> segment sizes since small segments also get their dedicated thread. This can
> lead to performance degradation due to context switching overheads.
>
> A better algorithm which is cognizant of size skew would have better
> performance for realistic scenarios
