Performance varies a lot, and depends upon the number of indexes, the number of fields, and the CPU/memory configuration. For myself, a 65Gb source indexed to 1Gb (or so) returns single term queries (oh yeah, the query makeup also matters a lot) in sub seconds on a Intel dual processor (each is 3.6Ghz I think.) I frankly haven't tested out scalability yet.

I found some _indexing_ benchmarks on the lucene website (http://lucene.apache.org/java/docs/benchmarks.html), but, after a short browsing, couldn't find any 'runtime' performance benchmarks (Query speed). Only one of the benchmarks contained some reference to the query execution... Is there any other source of benchmarks I can refer to? Or probably some heruistic rule that can help to estimate query execution time? Thanks. Vlad PS: let me know if details of the searched data will help in evaluation - I'll be able to provide what I know at this point... --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
