Package org.apache.lucene.util.packed Description

The packed package provides random access capable arrays of positive longs. The implementations provides different trade offs between memory usage and access speed. The standard usage scenario is replacing large int or long arrays in order to reduce the memory footprint.

The main access point is the PackedInts factory.
