[jira] [Commented] (LUCENE-5084) EliasFanoDocIdSet

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5084?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13696417#comment-13696417 ] 

Paul Elschot commented on LUCENE-5084:
--------------------------------------

Uwe,

The EliasFanoDocIdSet is not a bitset, but it is definitely cool, please have a look at the Vigna article I mentioned at LUCENE-5081.

The upper bound above on the bits per encoded number is valid for every sorted permutation of non negative whole numbers bounded by upperBound, and this size bound is no more than half a bit larger than the smallest possible representation.
