Thanks for feedback! > Since you wrote this, I expected tip files to become bigger, but your data suggests the opposite, tip files are getting smaller? Am I reading it correctly? Sorry I didn't make that clear. This was my motivation for implementing a specialized trie instead of a specialized FST. From a data structure perspective, an FST should be smaller than a trie because it can share output prefixes (as evidenced by https://github.com/apache/lucene/pull/12631). But in practice, this trie is specialized for block tree index, so the tip is actually smaller because this trie does more bitwise encoding than vint/vlong and it doesn't need to store the length of the floor data since it's already self-contained to know the length during reading. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
