Hi, I am still using Solr 1.2 with the Lucene 2.2 that came with that version of Solr. I am interested in taking advantage of the trie filtering to alleviate some performance problems and was wondering how back-portable these patches are?
I am also trying to understand how the Trie algorithm cuts down the number of term queries compared to a normal range query. I was at the recent Bay Area lucene/solr meetup where this was covered but missed some of the details. I know the ideal case is to upgrade to a newer Solr/Lucene but we are resource constrained and can't devote the time right now to test and upgrade our production systems to a newer Solr. Thanks! Amit
