Zach Chen commented on LUCENE-9335:
-----------------------------------

Just curious, I see code in 
[https://github.com/apache/lucene/blob/main/lucene/core/src/java/org/apache/lucene/search/BooleanWeight.java#L261-L288]
 and BooleanScorer (extends BulkScorer) are already available for optimized 
disjunction scoring. Is the goal here to leverage some ideas from Block-Max 
MaxScore to reduce the per-document decision in the code path above 
(particularly BooleanScorer) ?

> Lucene often gets benchmarked against other engines, e.g. against Tantivy and 
> PISA at [https://tantivy-search.github.io/bench/] or against research 
> prototypes in Table 1 of 
> [https://cs.uwaterloo.ca/~jimmylin/publications/Grand_etal_ECIR2020_preprint.pdf].
>  Given that top-level disjunctions of term queries are commonly used for 
> benchmarking, it would be nice to optimize this case a bit more, I suspect 
> that we could make fewer per-document decisions by implementing a BulkScorer 
> instead of a Scorer.
