[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-675?page=comments#action_12436518 ] Andrzej Bialecki commented on LUCENE-675: ------------------------------------------
The dependency on commons-compress could be avoided - I used this just to be able to unpack tar.gz files, we can use Ant for that. If you meant the dependency on the corpus - can't Ant download this too as a dependency? Re: Project Gutenberg - good point, this is a good source for multi-lingual documents. The "Europarl" collection is another, although a bit more hefty, so that could be suitable for running large-scale benchmarks, and texts from Project Gutenberg for running small-scale tests. > Lucene benchmark: objective performance test for Lucene > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-675 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-675 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Andrzej Bialecki > Attachments: LuceneBenchmark.java > > > We need an objective way to measure the performance of Lucene, both indexing > and querying, on a known corpus.
