mikemccand opened a new issue, #12486: URL: https://github.com/apache/lucene/issues/12486
### Description One of the differences between Tantivy and Lucene is that Tantivy supports within-block skipping (branchless binary search to locate a target docid inside a block of 128 postings), but Lucene skips only to block boundaries, and then does a linear scan within. Lucene is also doing the "accumulate docid deltas into the absolute docid" too in this loop, but I guess Tantivy does this separately somehow? Anyway, we could explore within-block skipping as well -- it might make conjunctive queries where both terms have roughly the same cardinality, quite a bit faster? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
