Why are we getting "Invalid value =" for parameter='INDEXED_EXTRACTIONS'" in the search.log when running a search using Hunk?

[tsunamii]

When running a search using Hunk, we are seeing a lot of these errors listed below in search log:

10-29-2015 22:22:56.942 ERROR IndexedExtractionsConfig - Invalid value='' for parameter='INDEXED_EXTRACTIONS'. 

Is this expected? If not, does it impact the search performance?

For Hunk/vix searches, these messages are pretty harmless as Hunk/vix searches do not support INDEXED_EXTRACTIONS yet. There is also an ER (SPL-108648) to have these messages removed in the Hunk search.log.
