For the record, Hits.id(int i) returns the document number. Note, though, that Hits is now deprecated, as pointed out by the link to 1290, so going the TopDocs route is probably better anyway.

This is possible, you need to provider a FieldSelector to IndexReader#document(docId, selector). This won't work with Hits though, because Hits does not expose the document number, so you need to roll your own solution using TopDocs or HitCollector, for information see the discussion in this issue: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1290

Subject: Is it possible to get only one Field from a Document?

I have a environment where we have indexed a DB with about 6mil entries
with Lucene, and each row has 25 columns. 20 cols have integer codes
used as filters (indexed/unstored), and the other 5 have (very) large
texts (also indexed/unstored). Currently the search I'm doing is like this:

Hits hits = searcher.search(query);
for (int i = 0; i < this.hits.length(); i++) {
   Document doc = this.hits.doc(i);
   String s = doc.get("fieldWanted");
    // does everything with the result, etc
}

We are trying to reduce memory usage, however. Is it possible to return
a Document object with just the Fields I really need? In the example,
each Document have 25 fields, and I just need one... would this
theoretically make any difference?
