Stored and term_vector can impact hits order?

Hi,

May be it is just a random observation but I noticed interesting situation.
I am running one server node with index having 4 shards (no replicas). Now,
when I index data and issue a query like "+term1 term2" then I get some hits
back. I noticed that two hits (out of the ten most relevant hits) switched
positions if I changed mapping for "_all" to { "store" : "yes",
"term_vector" : "with_positions_offsets" }.
It is worth noting that both the hits have the same value of score but it
seems as it was guarantied that if _all is not stored and with no
term_vector then the order of those two documents is reversed.

Regards,
Lukas

If they have the same score, then the order depends on several factors
internal to how Lucene works. Not really sure why you care.

Good to know that.
I do not bother much about this, just noticed that.

Thanks,
Lukas
