Without using a RAMDirectory index it would be necessary to
implement all Scorers used by the query directly top of the token
stream that normally goes into the index. This is possible, but
Lucene is not designed to do this, so it won't be easy.
But especially for more preparsed queries against a small set of
new documents, this might be nice to have. Still, even for that
case, it would only gain performance over using RAMDirectory
when the queries can be evaluated from the ground up,
sharing as many subqueries as possible. And that is
just the opposite of the top down way query search is
currently implemented on a prebuilt index.
The basic design for this would be to start from a set of queries
to be 'analyzed' to make them share as many subqueries
as possible, building a query graph.
Then this query graph would be fed the new documents
one by one, resulting in a score for each matching query
that was added to the query graph.
It is possible, but it would be quite a bit of work.
And then someone will come along with the requirement
to match an existing index against such a query graph,
which is not a bad idea either, but it might need yet another
way of collecting the results.
