The ability to configure Lucene file formats by adding tuning knobs has come up a few times in the past and the answer has been to create a custom codec, to keep the scope of what Lucene needs to maintain backward compatibility for contained. The downside is that you're then on your own when it comes to maintaining backward compatibility for the data (which is typically ok for use-cases that don't need backward compatibility guarantees, e.g. because they reindex data daily from another source of data). But it sounds fair to require users to maintain backward compatibility themselves when Lucene's out-of-the-box file formats are not good for them. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
