But then finding the doc is not 100% unambiguously. Because of this I  
searched for an other solution.

Yes sure.

Ah ok I assumed the same algorithem is used to query the values. And for  
that it would be faster because the number of values is smaller then the  
number of terms.
Why it is a lot slower? Which algorithem do you use for storing the values?
