Hi all, The size of the folder where I am keeping the index files is 160 MB
containing 3277 documents. That's not too much. If you are doing things right, search should not take much time. Below is the code : String sNumber = null; hits = searcher.search(query); for (int i = 0;i < hits.length();i++) { doc = hits.doc(i); sdocNumber = doc.get("NUMBER"); if (sNumber.equalsIgnoreCase(sdocNumber)) { LOGGER.info("Match found - " + sdocNumber); } } Can anyone help???
