Hi,

I have a Lucene index that contains a numeric field along with certain other 
fields. The order of incoming documents is random and un-predictable. As a 
result, while creating an index, I end up adding docs in random order with 
respect to the numeric field value.

For example, documents may be added in following order:
12,y,d
100,o,p
1,x,y
23,u,i
31,v,m
22,b,m
109,k,l

My requirement is that at search time, I want the documents in order of the 
numeric field.
One, option is to do a score/sort on the numeric field.
But, this may be a costly operation.

Hence, I am trying to find if there is some way, such that, my stored index is 
sorted by itself.

Please help.

Thanks and Regards,
