   Hi,
   I already responded on Slack, but I now found this PR and wanted to say some 
additional things:
   
   There is also a separate collector and on top of that a separate method in 
`IndexSearcher`, which automatically does a lot of the top-docs related stuff. 
The problem with a normal `TopDocs` or `TopFieldDocs` collector is that the 
empty PQ has some additional overhead (although the score is not calculated and 
returned as 0).
   
   First of all: SolrIndexSearcher should also implement support for using the 
optimized methods and collectors, unless a `DocSet` is needed (for 
facets/aggs). Using the `TotalHitCountCollector` is one thing to do (this needs 
to be done more down the line in the search code of Solr, but it's worth to do. 
But as there is now support to short-circuit count queries on the Query level, 
you should also think of using `IndexSearcher#count()` directly: E.g., this one 
returns `IndexReader#numDocs()` for `MatchAllDocsQuery` (thats a stupid simple 
case), but it can also return quick counts when there are no deleted docs in a 
segment and the statistics in index can answer the query.
   
   The changes here look fine (although I can't follow the discussion about 
those crazy flags true/false/whatever), but in addition to the code here, in 
case of no TopDocs and no facets, the code should call `IndexSearcher#count()`. 
In the facet case, it should at least use the `TotalHitCountCollector` as the 
final sink.
