interesting question, but I'm afraid I can't give a definite answer. I'd guess that all you can do is try out what is faster - the query filter or an added boolean clause in your query. In general I wouldn't expect any speed difference in a query matching a single document issued with or without an additional clause matching the id field of that document. There will be some speed improvement if your query matches more documents, but mainly because you narrow the result set that Ferret has to return to down to one element, not because search is faster.
