------------------------------------

Sry, wrong commit message pointed to here, the correct issue should be 
LUCENE-9391.

BTW, is this patch ever merged?

> The original version of {{ExpressionFunctionValues}} had a simple per-hit 
> cache, so that nested expressions that reference the same common variable 
> would compute the value for that variable the first time it was referenced 
> and then use that cached value for all subsequent invocations, within one 
> hit.  I think it was accidentally removed in LUCENE-7609?
> This is quite important if you have non-trivial expressions that reference 
> the same variable multiple times.
> E.g. if I have these expressions:
> {noformat}
> x = c + d
> c = b + 2 
> d = b * 2{noformat}
> Then evaluating x should only cause b's value to be computed once (for a 
> given hit), but today it's computed twice.  The problem is combinatoric if b 
> then references another variable multiple times, etc.
> I think to fix this we just need to restore the per-hit cache?
