You are essentially testing sets of size 5000 against sets of size 500,000. BitSet keeps track of the largest bit you set (which is 5000) and doesn't actually calculate the intersection or the populationCount beyond that. OpenBitSet does not (it tries to do the minimum necessary and make everything as fast as possible.)
So if you changed the single bit you set from 5000 to 499,999, you should see very different results. In any case, if one is only going to set a single bit, there are much faster ways of calculating intersection sizes ;-) -Yonik On 7/22/06, Cass Costello <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hello all, I'm newish to both Lucene and Solr, but I'm loving learning both. I was intrigued by the comments in the OpenBitSet javadocs... <snip> OpenBitSet is faster than java.util.BitSet in most operations and *much* faster at calculating cardinality of sets and results of set operations. </snip> ...so I decided to see for myself and concocted a couple tests, which consistently result in... Took 421ms to get 5000 bitset intersection counts Took 1465ms to get 5000 openbitset intersection counts ...and I'm wondering what I've done wrong. The results are consistent across differenct jvms and different hardware setups. I'm using the 7/22 nightly of Solr. See my test code below. FYI, my interest in Solr/Lucene stems from a need to create a facetted browse experience with 10s of thousands of facets derived from millions of documents.
