[jira] [Commented] (LUCENE-3892) Add a useful intblock postings
format (eg, FOR, PFOR, PFORDelta, Simple9/16/64, etc.)
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3892?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13265950#comment-13265950 ]
Han Jiang commented on LUCENE-3892:
-----------------------------------
A postings format named VSEncoding also seems promising!
It is available here: http://integerencoding.isti.cnr.it/
And license compatible: https://github.com/maropu/integer_encoding_library/blob/master/LICENSE

> On the flex branch we explored a number of possible intblock
> encodings, but for whatever reason never brought them to completion.
> There are still a number of issues opened with patches in different
> states.
> Initial results (based on prototype) were excellent (see
> http://blog.mikemccandless.com/2010/08/lucene-performance-with-pfordelta-codec.html
> ).
> I think this would make a good GSoC project.
