Hi,
Also note that score is different if only one term match and if both terms are 
matched. Your case would make sense if you do not plan to order by score, but 
as Walter explained, Solr does not go document by document and evaluate query 
conditions, but it gets list of documents matching each part of boolean query 
(you can think of it as bitsets) and do union/intersection to get the final 
result.

HTH,
Emir
