Simon Willnauer commented on LUCENE-4069:
-----------------------------------------
hey mark,
I think you should really not provide any field handling at all. this should be
done in user code ie. a general codes/postings format per field. What would be
very useful here is integration into RandomCodec so we can randomly swap it in.
Same is true for the hash algos & memory settings, I think they should be part
of the abstract class ctor and if a user wants to use its own algo they should
write their own codec ie. subclass. this stuff is very expert and apps like
solr can handle this on top.
I am still worried about the TermsEnum reuse code, are you planning to look
into this?

> Key: LUCENE-4069
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4069
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: core/index
> Affects Versions: 3.6, 4.0
> Reporter: Mark Harwood
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 4.0, 3.6.1
>
> Attachments: BloomFilterCodec40.patch,
> MHBloomFilterOn3.6Branch.patch, PrimaryKey40PerformanceTestSrc.zip
>
>
> An addition to each segment which stores a Bloom filter for selected fields
> in order to give fast-fail to term searches, helping avoid wasted disk access.
> Best suited for low-frequency fields e.g. primary keys on big indexes with
> many segments but also speeds up general searching in my tests.
> Overview slideshow here:
> http://www.slideshare.net/MarkHarwood/lucene-bloomfilteredsegments
> Benchmarks based on Wikipedia content here: http://goo.gl/X7QqU
> Patch based on 3.6 codebase attached.
> There are no 3.6 API changes currently - to play just add a field with "_blm"
> on the end of the name to invoke special indexing/querying capability.
> Clearly a new Field or schema declaration(!) would need adding to APIs to
> configure the service properly.
> Also, a patch for Lucene4.0 codebase introducing a new PostingsFormat
