> A Similarity class which extends DefaultSimilarity and simply overrides lengthNorm.  lengthNorm is implemented as a lookup for numTerms <= 10, else as {{1/sqrt(numTerms)}}. This is to avoid term counts below 11 from having the same lengthNorm after stored as a single byte in the index.
> This is useful if your search is only on short fields such as titles or product descriptions.
