> IndexOrDocValuesQuery is very useful to pick the right execution mode for a query depending on other bits of the query tree.
> We would like to be able to use it to optimize execution of TermInSetQuery. However IndexOrDocValuesQuery only works well if the "index" query can give an estimation of the cost of the query without doing anything expensive (like looking up all terms of the TermInSetQuery in the terms dict). Maybe we could implement it for primary keys (terms.size() == sumDocFreq) by returning the number of terms of the query? Another idea is to multiply the number of terms by the average postings length, though this could be dangerous if the field has a zipfian distribution and some terms have a much higher doc frequency than the average.
> [~romseygeek] and I were discussing this a few weeks ago, and more recently [~mikemccand] and [~gsmiller] again independently. So it looks like there is interest in this. Here is an email thread where this was recently discussed: https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/re3b20a486c9a4e66b2ca4a2646e2d3be48535a90cdd95911a8445183%40%3Cdev.lucene.apache.org%3E.
