[jira] [Commented] (LUCENE-8718) Add docValueCount support for SortedSetDocValues

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8718?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16789317#comment-16789317 ] 

Adrien Grand commented on LUCENE-8718:
--------------------------------------

Should we do it? Counts are required with numerics because they don't have a special value that can be used to signal that all values have been consumed. This change limits a bit what can be done in terms of encoding since it requires the count to be recorded explicitly. For instance I think the first implementation of SortedSet used to record deltas between consecutive ords as a set of vlongs in a binary doc-value field. This wouldn't be possible with this new API anymore.
