query regarding the use of boost across the fields in edismax query
hi all
wanted to know what could be the difference between the results if I apply
boost accross say 5 fields in query like for
first: title^10.0 features^7.0 cat^5.0 color^3.0 root^1.0 and
second settings like : title^10.0 features^5.0 cat^3.0 color^2.0 root^1.0
what could be the difference as in the weights are in same order decreasing?
thanks in advance
regards
Rohan

Not sure if i'm missing something but in the first case features, cat,
and color field have more weight, so matches on them with have bigger
contribution to the overall relevancy score.
