Mike, which version of Lucene supports lazy loading? Thanks.

I can share the data.. but it would be quicker for you to just pull out some
random text from anywhere you like.

OK, I hear you.  I'll pull together some test data ... thanks.

Also.. upon reflection I'm not certain using compression inside the index is
really a valuable process without lazy loading anyway.  The time-cost of
decompression when iterating hits reduces the overall effectiveness of the
index.  This is obviously solved by lazy loading (for searches) and I am
excited about this feature being added.  Obviously it depends on the
use-case, but in mine I realised that storing large amounts of data in the
index is just not the right way to do things. So I changed my architecture
so that the larger amounts of data are stored (and compressed) elsewhere,
then brought back in when I need to update a document.

Of course all my problems would be solved if I had lazy loading AND field
updating :)

Compleletely agreed! Lazy loading & specific field selection on loading a doc, have been addressed ... but field updating in the presence of compressed fields hasn't yet been addressed (I think). I'll raise this use case on the java-dev list.

Mike
