: As for the exact matching, I am wondering if I should store the hashcode of : the text in a separate field and convert the text in the query to a hashcode : before passing it on or if Lucene already does something like that under the : covers when it sees Field.Store.NO & Field.Index.NOT_ANALYZED. We will have : millions of entries.
lucene doesn't modify your data ... if you have a hashing function that you are reasonably sure won't produce any collisions, you might see speed / index-size improvements in using a hash instead of the orriginal string (it depends on how fast your hashing function is, and how small the has values are compared to the input values) -Hoss --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-user-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-user-h...@lucene.apache.org
