> Shot version:
> This improves performance for facet.method=enum when it's enough to know that facet count>0, for example when you it's when you dynamically populate filters on search form. New method checks if two bitsets intersect instead of counting intersection size.
> Long version:
> We have a dataset containing hundreds of millions of records, we facet by dozens of fields with many of facet-excludes and have relatively small number of unique values in fields, around thousands.
> Before executing search, users work with "advanced search" form, our  goal is to populate dozens of filters with values which are applicable with other selected values, so basically this is a use case for facets with mincount=1, but without need in actual counts.
> Our performance tests showed that facet.method=enum works much better than fc\fcs, probably due to a specific ratio of "docset"\"unique terms count". For example average execution of query time with method fc=1500ms, fcs=2600ms and with enum=280ms. Profiling indicated the majority time for enum was spent on intersecting docsets.
> Hers's a patch that introduces an extension to facet calculation for method=enum. Basically it uses docSetA.intersects(docSetB) instead of docSetA. intersectionSize (docSetB).
> As a result we were able to reduce our average query time from 280ms to 60ms.
