Hi.

Your question is actually not particularly spatial; it’s more
circumstantial to your particular query. You want to know how to do a query
and collect *all* the results, in no particular order.  To do this
efficiently, you need to use a Collector.  Also, I noticed you are using
the “IsWithin” predicate.  If all of your data consists of points, then
“Intersects” is semantically equivalent and faster.  Here’s some sample
code I temporarily threw into SpatialExample.java that works on Lucene
trunk.  You’ll see a difference of Document vs StoredDocument with 4x:

    {
      SpatialArgs args = new SpatialArgs(SpatialOperation.IsWithin,
          ctx.makeRectangle(-90, -60, 30, 40));

      indexSearcher.search(strategy.makeQuery(args),
          new SimpleCollector() {
            public AtomicReader reader;

            @Override
            public boolean acceptsDocsOutOfOrder() {
              return true;
            }

            @Override
            protected void doSetNextReader(AtomicReaderContext context)
throws IOException {
              this.reader = context.reader();
            }

            @Override
            public void collect(int docId) throws IOException {
              StoredDocument doc = reader.document(docId);
              System.out.println(doc.get("id") + "\t" +
doc.get("myGeoField"));
            }
          });
    }
