Hi everyone: >From the last couple of week I'm noting some really odd results in my Solr >server, searching for the root cause the one thing I can point out is a very >high value of the fieldNorm parameter in the score calculation, an snippet of >the debug info:
{ "match":true, "value":4907799.5, "description":"fieldWeight in 5316, product of:", "details":[ { "match":true, "value":2, "description":"tf(freq=4.0), with freq of:", "details":[ { "match":true, "value":4, "description":"termFreq=4.0" } ] }, { "match":true, "value":3.7443538, "description":"idf(docFreq=49449, maxDocs=769173)" }, { "match":true, "value":655360, "description":"fieldNorm(doc=5316)" } ] } This match is in the "title" field, which has 119669 total terms (which isn't such big number) and the total document count in this index is also rather small: 613772. >From [1] the fieldNorm encapsulates several parameters in its calculation: - Field boost (not used by us) - lengthNorm (which I'm suspecting is the culprit) I'm thinking on using omitNorms, but first I would like to discover why is this happening. Any help on this issue? Regards,
