Thanks!
Yes you're right. Highlight all hits at one time may cause problems. A hits
paging method is needed to avoid this.
Another, if we read the contents of the original file into a string, passing
it to the highlighter at the searching stage, this also could cause problems
when large original file met. I think we can use a random access method to
reduce the string size by locating the searched word, and this may be a general
problem needing to be solved.

In your case, you'll need to get the "path" field (since that is
being stored) and then load the file into a String to pass to the
highlighter. The text to highlight must be stored somewhere, and in
your case it is on the filesystem only.
Be carefuly - you're highlighting all hits there, which will have
issues if you get a lot of hits.
