Can you split your corpus across multiple Lucene instances? Cheers, Oli

Is there any way to work around this limitation? For the moment I have implemented my own DirectoryReader and BaseCompositeReader to at least make them support documents from Integer.MIN_VALUE to -1 (for twice more documents supported), the problem is that all the APIs are restricted to use the int type and after the docID value wraps back to 0, I have no way to restore the original docID. -- Thanks in advance, Artem.
