Hi All,
I want to provide sorting, range search and faceting in numeric fields. AFAIK, Purpose of different numeric field types are, NumericDocValuesField supports sorting and faceting LongField/IntField supports range query and sorting 1. Should i duplicate one field in above mentioned types to achieve all the three features in numeric? 2. If i am ready to sacrifice faceting, is it advisable to use LongField for sorting and range query? 3. During sorting, Will NumericDocValuesField( column stride storage) perform better than LongField(trie structure)? If so , should i duplicate field in both 1 and 2 cases? - Kumaran R
