Hi,
I am not completely sure on what's the recommended setting for fields
used for faceting regarding omitNorms and potitionIncrementGap.
Should I used omitNorms="true"?
What about positionIncrementGap?
At the moment I have this in my schema.xml:
<dynamicField name="*_facet" type="keyword" indexed="true"
stored="false" multiValued="true" />
<fieldType name="keyword" class="solr.TextField">
<analyzer class="org.apache.lucene.analysis.KeywordAnalyzer"/>
</fieldType>
And I was thinking to change to:
<dynamicField name="*_facet" type="keyword" indexed="true"
stored="false" multiValued="true" omitNorms="true"
positionIncrementGap="100" />
There is documentation, but I did not find a definite answer for
omitNorms in relation to faceting.
"faceting: indexed='true'"

"Only full-text fields or fields that need an index-time boost need
norms."
