Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-3892:
--------------------------------------------
Those are interesting results! Curious how much faster indexing is for PFor if
you use all_Vs; cutting the header is also a nice reduction on index size.
Instead of having P/ForUtil reach up into P/ForPostingsFormat for the default
block size, I think we can assume the int[] array length (of the decoded
buffer) is the size of the block?
> Add a useful intblock postings format (eg, FOR, PFOR, PFORDelta,
> Simple9/16/64, etc.)

> On the flex branch we explored a number of possible intblock
> encodings, but for whatever reason never brought them to completion.
> There are still a number of issues opened with patches in different
> states.
> Initial results (based on prototype) were excellent (see
> http://blog.mikemccandless.com/2010/08/lucene-performance-with-pfordelta-codec.html
> ).
> I think this would make a good GSoC project.
