Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-5077:
-------------------------------------
I made a patch for this actually, ill find it or redo it.
I think actually the good one to pick is PackedInts.DEFAULT or FAST (I forget
which). for values < 255 one of these guarantees you get the fast 3-block one
it doesnt actually waste so much space and its much much faster than COMPACT.
> make it easier to use compressed norms

> Reporter: Michael McCandless
> Fix For: 5.0, 4.4

>
> Lucene42DVConsumer's ctor takes acceptableOverheadRatio, so that you can
> tradeoff time/space, and we pass PackedInts.FASTEST so we always use 8 bits
> per value.
> But the class is package private, so if I want to make my own NormsFormat and
> pass e.g. PackedInts.COMPACT, I can't ... I think we should make this class
> public / @experimental?
