Details

    Description

      Multiple performance enhancements to Solr String faceting.

      • Sparse counters, switching the constant time overhead of extracting top-X terms with time overhead linear to result set size
      • Counter re-use for reduced garbage collection and lower per-call overhead
      • Optional counter packing, trading speed for space
      • Improved distribution count logic, greatly improving the performance of distributed faceting
      • In-segment threaded faceting
      • Regexp based white- and black-listing of facet terms
      • Heuristic faceting for large result sets

      Currently implemented for Solr 4.10. Source, detailed description and directly usable WAR at http://tokee.github.io/lucene-solr/

      This project has grown beyond a simple patch and will require a fair amount of co-operation with a committer to get into Solr. Splitting into smaller issues is a possibility.
