Haoyu Zhai commented on LUCENE-8574:
------------------------------------

Ah, yes will use boolean instead of NaN. I'm just verifying whether the patch 
works so quickly inserted few lines of code without much thinking.

But how should we fix this issue correctly? Since the easy fix patch seems not 
solving the problem.

> 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?
