Hello, I am trying to normalize values of a certain field, and then use them in a function query. For that I need to know the maximum and minimum values the field gets. I am thinking of using the scale(x, minTarget, maxTarget) query function, but i read in solr book (Solr 1.4 enterprise search server by Eric Pugh and David Smiley) that "*scale will traverse the entire document set and evaluate the function to determine the smallest and largest values for each query invocation, and it is not cached " *. What makes me ask two questions:
1. Is this also true for TrieFields (such as solr.TrieIntField), because as far as I understand it suppose to have the values sorted in some manner, so checking for the min and max val should happen in constant time complexity. 2. why are the results are not cached?!?! is there any way to defined them to be cached? the first question is far more important to me than the second.. thanks *Omri Cohen* Co-founder @ yotpo.com | o...@yotpo.com | +972-50-7235198 | +972-3-6036295 My profiles: [image: LinkedIn] <http://www.linkedin.com/in/omric> [image: Twitter] <http://www.twitter.com/omricohe> [image: WordPress]<http://omricohen.me> Please consider your environmental responsibility.
