: No point, I believe, unless your sort includes relevance score. I ...which is non trivial information to deduce, since a SortField can contain a SortComparatorSource which uses a ScoreDocComparator which can do anything it wants with the ScoreDoc. If you know that you really don't care about score, you can use Filters instead of Queries and then sort the docs represented by bits() yourself ... this is an approachSolr takes if a DocSet (Solr concept roughly equal to a BitSet of documents) is already in the cache and you want the first N sorted by a field. (the heart of the jira issue Otis refered to is unifying the concepts of a Query Scorer and a Filter into a common base class: Matcher) -Hoss --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
