The advantage of a `Rescorer` is that is is explicitly only run over the hits in a `TopDocs` instance, whereas `FunctionScoreQuery` will run over the entire docid space if you let it. So it's a natural fit for a late-interaction search process - run your first query over the whole document set to get a preliminary top-k, and then pass the resulting `TopDocs` to your rescorer. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
