On the specific question, calling doc() is still expensive. You could look at the FieldCache or the new DocValues stuff. See http://www.searchworkings.org/blog/-/blogs/introducing-lucene-index-doc-values for info on the latter.
On the general question, much of your lucene knowledge will still be relevant. There'll be some new stuff you've never heard of, and loads of changes behind the scenes you may be able to ignore, but the basic concepts and techniques haven't changed that much. I suggest reading the Changes doc from 4.1. -- Ian.
