Can you tell us a bit more about what you custom query does? Perhaps you can build the "candidate filter" and reuse it over and over again?

I cannot reuse it. The candidate filter would be constructed by first running a boolean query with a number of SHOULD clauses. So then I know what docs atleast contain the terms I'm looking for. Once I have this set, I will look at the ordering of the matches (it's a bit more sophisticated than just a phrase query) and find the final matches. Since my boolean clauses are different for each query I can't reuse the filter.

Hi all,

I am working on implementing a new Query, Weight and Scorer that is expensive to run. I'd like to limit the number of documents I run this query on by first building a candidate set of documents with a boolean query. Once I have that candidate set, I was hoping I could build a filter off of it, and issue that along with my expensive query. However, after reading the code I see that filtering is done during the search, and not before hand. So my initial boolean query won't help in limiting the number of documents scored by my expensive query.

Has anyone done any work into restricting the set of docs that a query operates on?
Or should I just implement something myself in a custom scorer?

Thanks in advance,
