In my thinking, this would only be called for documents that are explicitly requested with Hits.doc(). I was not thinking that distributed search would support the "low-level" interface, but just the Hits interface. For each search, two calls would be made per remote index, one to get query term statistics, and one to get the top-scoring document numbers and scores. These can be merged, and then only the globally top-scoring document objects need be retrieved, as they are displayed. Doug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: For additional commands, e-mail:
