Lucene 8.4.0 Release Highlights:
...
- Concurrent search is getting more efficient by allowing collectors to share information across threads in order to more efficiently skip non-competitive hits.
- Faster FST lookups on dense nodes are getting faster by indexing labels using a bit set. This allowed to remove a cache, which in-turn might help decrease memory usage on indices that have lots of indexed fields.
- Postings are now decoded using SIMD instructions.
LRUQueryCache includes new heuristics that prevent caching from hurting latency too much.
- LatLonShape builds a more efficient tree that is expected to translate into search speed improvements.
- BaseDirectoryReader no longer sums up document counts across leaves eagerly, allowing for more efficient reader views that hide a subset of the documentdocuments.
- The index on top of BKD trees is now stored off-heap with MMapDirectory.
- Simple Intervals Queries supports highlighting.
- Reading DocValues can be interrupted when timeout is exceeded.
