Right - I bet your numeric field is relatively ordered in the index. When this happens, there is always one sort order that is less efficient because the priority queue is constantly finding more competitive hits as we search through the index. If you index random numbers (or in a random order), the discrepancy between the sort order should disappear. -Yonik http://lucidworks.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-user-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-user-h...@lucene.apache.org
