I need to sort documents returned in order of (descending)score & (descending)value of an int field within the document. How do I ensure proper sort order as well as good performance ?
I don't need the sort-order defined by sort=score desc,intField desc. The sort order needs to be somewhat like what will be delivered using product function of score*fieldVal as effective score for sort order. But I don't need exact product for sorting. Approximations are ok, & this is just to roughly define the sort order I need. I can see a few possible ways to accomplish this: *1. Use a customized function of score for sort* *2. Use query time boost to increase the score using the int field value for boost* I'm new to Solr & don't understand the performance implications of each of above case. Also, don't know if there are other better ways to accomplish what I am trying to do. So how do I build *performance friendly query to achieve this sort order* ?
