```rust
use zipora::*;

// High-performance vector
let mut vec = FastVec::new();
vec.push(42).unwrap();

// Zero-copy strings with SIMD hashing
let s = FastStr::from_string("hello world");
println!("Hash: {:x}", s.hash_fast());

// Intelligent rank/select with automatic optimization
let mut bv = BitVector::new();
for i in 0..1000 { bv.push(i % 7 == 0).unwrap(); }
let adaptive_rs = AdaptiveRankSelect::new(bv).unwrap();
let rank = adaptive_rs.rank1(500);

// Unified Trie - Strategy-based configuration
use zipora::fsa::{ZiporaTrie, ZiporaTrieConfig, Trie};

let mut trie = ZiporaTrie::new();
trie.insert(b"hello").unwrap();
assert!(trie.contains(b"hello"));

// Unified Hash Map - Strategy-based configuration
use zipora::hash_map::{ZiporaHashMap, ZiporaHashMapConfig};

let mut map = ZiporaHashMap::new();
map.insert("key", "value").unwrap();

// Blob storage with compression
let config = ZipOffsetBlobStoreConfig::performance_optimized();
let mut builder = ZipOffsetBlobStoreBuilder::with_config(config).unwrap();
builder.add_record(b"Compressed data").unwrap();
let store = builder.finish().unwrap();

// Entropy coding
let encoder = HuffmanEncoder::new(b"sample data").unwrap();
let compressed = encoder.encode(b"sample data").unwrap();

// String utilities
use zipora::string::{join_str, hex_encode, hex_decode, words, decimal_strcmp};
let joined = join_str(", ", &["hello", "world"]);
assert_eq!(joined, "hello, world");

## Building a Search Engine with Zipora

Zipora provides the core building blocks for high-performance search engines: succinct posting lists, compressed document storage, trie-based term dictionaries, SIMD-accelerated query processing, and multi-threaded indexing pipelines.

### Architecture Overview

```
 Documents                    Query
     |                          |
     v                          v
 [Tokenizer]              [Query Parser]
     |                          |
     v                          v
 [Term Dictionary]  --->  [Term Lookup]        ZiporaTrie / DoubleArrayTrie
     |                          |
     v                          v
 [Inverted Index]  --->  [Posting Lists]       UintVecMin0 / SortedUintVec / BitVector
     |                          |
     v                          v
 [Document Store]  --->  [Doc Retrieval]       DictZipBlobStore / MixedLenBlobStore
     |                          |
     v                          v
 [Compression]            [Ranking]            HuffmanEncoder / Rans64Encoder
```

### 1. Term Dictionary (Trie-based)

Use `DoubleArrayTrie` (double-array trie) for maximum performance — 8 bytes per state with O(1) transitions per byte. For large vocabularies, it's 3-5x more memory-efficient than `HashMap<String, u32>` while providing faster lookups.

```rust
use zipora::DoubleArrayTrie;

// Build term dictionary during indexing
let mut dict = DoubleArrayTrie::new();

for term in terms.iter() {
    dict.insert(term.as_bytes()).unwrap();
}

// Query-time lookup: O(|key|) with O(1) per-byte transitions
assert!(dict.contains(b"search"));

// For key-value storage (term → term_id)
use zipora::DoubleArrayTrieMap;
let mut term_ids: DoubleArrayTrieMap<u32> = DoubleArrayTrieMap::new();
for (term_id, term) in terms.iter().enumerate() {
    term_ids.insert(term.as_bytes(), term_id as u32).unwrap();
}
let id = term_ids.get(b"search");
```

For alternative trie strategies (LOUDS, Patricia, CritBit), use `ZiporaTrie` with explicit config. For compressed term storage with prefix sharing, use `NestLoudsTrieBlobStore`.

### 2. Inverted Index (Posting Lists)

Choose the right container based on posting list characteristics:

```rust
use zipora::containers::{UintVecMin0, ZipIntVec};
use zipora::blob_store::SortedUintVec;
use zipora::BitVector;

// Option A: UintVecMin0 — variable-width packed integers (2-58 bits per value)
// Best for: medium-length posting lists with bounded doc IDs
let mut postings = UintVecMin0::new();
for doc_id in matching_docs {
    postings.push(doc_id);
}
// Access: postings.get(i) — O(1), cache-friendly sequential layout

// Option B: SortedUintVec — delta + block compression for sorted doc IDs
// Best for: long posting lists (60-80% space reduction vs raw u32)

// Option C: BitVector + RankSelect — bitmap representation
// Best for: high-frequency terms (>10% of docs), boolean queries
let mut bitmap = BitVector::new();
for i in 0..num_docs {
    bitmap.push(doc_ids.contains(&i)).unwrap();
}
```

### 3. Boolean Query Processing (Set Operations)

SIMD-accelerated set operations on posting lists — **up to 41x faster** than element-by-element processing for bitwise operations.

```rust
use zipora::algorithms::set_ops::{
    multiset_intersection,   // AND queries
    multiset_union,          // OR queries
    multiset_difference,     // NOT queries
    multiset_fast_intersection, // adaptive: picks best algo by size ratio
};

// AND query: "rust" AND "search"
let result = multiset_intersection(&postings_rust, &postings_search);

// For skewed sizes (one term rare, one common), use adaptive intersection
// Automatically picks linear merge vs binary search based on |A|/|B| ratio
let result = multiset_fast_intersection(&rare_term, &common_term);

// Bulk bitwise on rank/select bitvectors (41x faster with SIMD)
use zipora::AdaptiveRankSelect;
let rs = AdaptiveRankSelect::new(bitmap).unwrap();
let rank = rs.rank1(doc_id);   // count docs before this ID — O(1)
let pos = rs.select1(rank);    // find N-th matching doc — O(log n)
```

### 4. Document Storage (Compressed Blob Stores)

Store and retrieve documents with dictionary compression (PA-Zip):

```rust
use zipora::DictZipBlobStore;
use zipora::blob_store::{MixedLenBlobStore, PlainBlobStore, BlobStore};

// DictZipBlobStore: best compression for similar documents (web pages, logs)
// Learns a shared dictionary from training data, then compresses each record
let store = DictZipBlobStore::builder()
    .build_from_records(&documents)
    .unwrap();

// Retrieve: zero-copy access via mmap
let doc = store.get(doc_id).unwrap();

// MixedLenBlobStore: optimal for mixed fixed/variable-length records
// Automatically selects storage strategy based on record size distribution

// PlainBlobStore: uncompressed, fastest retrieval for hot data
```

### 5. Entropy Coding (Posting List Compression)

Compress posting list deltas with Huffman or rANS:

```rust
use zipora::HuffmanEncoder;
use zipora::Rans64Encoder;

// Huffman O0: simple, fast encoding (1.1 µs per 65KB)
let encoder = HuffmanEncoder::new(&training_data).unwrap();
let compressed = encoder.encode(&delta_encoded_postings).unwrap();

// Huffman O1: context-aware, better compression for structured data
// Particularly effective for posting list deltas with skewed distributions

// rANS: highest compression ratio, slightly slower
let rans = Rans64Encoder::new(&training_data).unwrap();
let compressed = rans.encode(&data).unwrap();
```

### 6. Multi-threaded Indexing

Parallelize index building with rayon and zipora's pipeline processing:

```rust
use rayon::prelude::*;
use zipora::algorithms::MultiWayMerge;

// Parallel document processing: each thread builds a segment
let segments: Vec<_> = document_batches
    .par_iter()
    .map(|batch| {
        let mut segment_index = SegmentIndex::new();
        for doc in batch {
            let terms = tokenize(doc);
            for term in terms {
                segment_index.add(term, doc.id);
            }
        }
        segment_index
    })
    .collect();

// Merge segments using k-way merge (loser tree)
use zipora::EnhancedLoserTree;
// EnhancedLoserTree provides O(log k) per element for k-way merge
// Ideal for merging sorted posting lists from parallel index segments
```

For async pipeline processing (requires `async` feature):

```rust
use zipora::Pipeline;
// Pipeline stages: parse → tokenize → index → compress → flush
// Each stage runs concurrently with work-stealing load balancing
```

### 7. Memory-Mapped Index Files

Serve large indices directly from disk without loading into RAM:

```rust
use zipora::memory::MmapVec;

// Memory-map an index file — OS manages paging
let index: MmapVec<u32> = MmapVec::open("postings.idx").unwrap();

// Random access is backed by the page cache
let doc_id = index[position];

// For blob stores, use mmap-backed storage
// DictZipBlobStore and NestLoudsTrieBlobStore support mmap natively
```

### 8. Query Result Caching

LRU cache for frequently accessed posting lists — **26x faster** hot-set retrieval vs HashMap:

```rust
use zipora::containers::specialized::LruMap;

// Cache hot posting lists

### 9. String Processing for Tokenization

```rust
use zipora::SortableStrVec;
use zipora::string::{decimal_strcmp, words};

// Arena-based string storage: 7.8x faster than Vec<String> for push (100K strings)
let mut terms = SortableStrVec::new();
for token in document.split_whitespace() {
    terms.push(token);
}
terms.sort(); // In-place sort, 1.15x faster than Vec<String>::sort

// For small lookup tables (field names, stop words), SmallMap is 3.8x faster
use zipora::SmallMap;
let mut stop_words = SmallMap::new();
stop_words.insert("the", true);
stop_words.insert("and", true);
```

### Component Selection Guide

| Search Engine Component | Zipora Type | When to Use |
|------------------------|-------------|-------------|
| Term dictionary | `DoubleArrayTrie` | Default choice, 8 bytes/state, O(1) transitions |
| Term dictionary (alternatives) | `ZiporaTrie` | LOUDS/Patricia/CritBit via config |
| Short posting lists | `UintVecMin0` | Variable-width, <1M doc IDs |
| Long posting lists | `SortedUintVec` | Delta-compressed sorted IDs |
| Boolean posting lists | `BitVector` + `AdaptiveRankSelect` | High-frequency terms, bitwise ops |
| AND/OR/NOT queries | `set_ops::multiset_*` | Sorted posting list intersection |
| Bulk bitwise queries | SIMD rank/select | 10-41x faster than scalar |
| Document storage | `DictZipBlobStore` | Best compression for similar docs |
| Document storage (fast) | `PlainBlobStore` | Uncompressed, fastest retrieval |
| Posting compression | `HuffmanEncoder` | Fast encode/decode |
| Posting compression | `Rans64Encoder` | Best compression ratio |
| Query cache | `LruMap` | 26x faster hot-set access |
| Small lookups | `SmallMap` | 3.8x faster for ≤8 keys |
| String storage | `SortableStrVec` / `FixedStr16Vec` | Arena-based, 7.8x vs Vec\<String\> |
| Index files | `MmapVec` | Disk-backed, OS-managed paging |
| Segment merge | `MultiWayMerge` / `EnhancedLoserTree` | K-way merge of sorted lists |
| Parallel indexing | `rayon` + `Pipeline` | Multi-threaded segment building |
