## Class MemoryPostingsFormat

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.lucene.codecs.PostingsFormat
  - - org.apache.lucene.codecs.memory.MemoryPostingsFormat

All Implemented Interfaces:
  NamedSPILoader.NamedSPI

    public final class MemoryPostingsFormat
    extends PostingsFormat

Stores terms & postings (docs, positions, payloads) in RAM, using an FST.

Note that this codec implements advance as a linear scan! This means if you store large fields in here, queries that rely on advance will (AND BooleanQuery, PhraseQuery) will be relatively slow!

WARNING: This API is experimental and might change in incompatible ways in the next release.
