Bit sets can be faster at advancing and more storage-efficient on dense blocks of postings. This is not a new idea, @mkhludnev proposed something similar a long time ago #6116. @msokolov recently brought up (#14080) that such an encoding has become especially appealing with the introduction of the `DocIdSetIterator#loadIntoBitSet` API, and the fact that non-scoring disjunctions and dense conjunctions now take advantage of it. Indeed, if postings are stored in a bit set, `#loadIntoBitSet` would just need to OR the postings bits into the bits that are used as an intermediate representation of matches of the query. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
