I was looking at some queries where Lucene performs significantly worse than Tantivy at https://tantivy-search.github.io/bench/, and found out that we get quite some overhead from implementing `BooleanScorer` on top of `BulkScorer` (effectively implemented by `DefaultBulkScorer` since it only runs term queries as boolean clauses) rather than `Scorer` directly. The `CountOrHighHigh` and `CountOrHighMed` tasks are a bit noisy on my machine, so I did 3 runs on wikibigall, and all of them had speedups for these two tasks, often with a very low p-value. In theory, this change could make things slower when the inner query has a specialized bulk scorer, such as `MatchAllDocsQuery` or a conjunction. It does feel right to optimize for term queries though. |

Building
Basic steps:
- Install OpenJDK 21.
- Clone Lucene's git repository (or download the source distribution).
- Run gradle launcher script (
gradlew
).
We'll assume that you know how to get and set up the JDK - if you don't, then we suggest starting at https://jdk.java.net/ and learning more about Java, before returning to this README.
