Properties
Size of blocks.
Filename extension for document number, frequencies, and skip data. See chapter: #Frequencies
We insert skip data on every block and every SKIP_FACTOR=32 blocks.
Total number of docs covered by level 1 skip data: 32 * 128 = 4,096
Filename extension for some small metadata about how postings are encoded.
Filename extension for payloads and offsets. See chapter: #Payloads
Filename extension for positions. See chapter: #Positions
Version that started encoding dense blocks as bit sets. Note: the old format is a subset of the new format, so Lucene101PostingsReader is able to read the old format without checking the version.
Functions
