Though, if you just want to get to the last term... VarGap's terms index can quickly tell you the last indexed term, and from there you can scan to the last term? (It'd be at most 32 (by default) scans). -- Mike http://blog.mikemccandless.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-user-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-user-h...@lucene.apache.org
