I have done a search on the word ³blue² in our index. The debugQuery shows
some extremely strange methods of scoring. Somehow product 1 gets a higher
score with only 1 match on the word blue when product 2 gets a lower score
with the same field match AND an additional field match. Can someone please
help me understand why such an obviously more relevant product is given a
lower score.
