A single process is much easier for the admin. A multi-process solution is more complicated to start up, monitor, shut down, and upgrade. There is decent demand for a spidering enterprise search engine. Look at the Google Appliance, Ultraseek, and IBM OmniFind. The free IBM OmniFind Yahoo! Edition uses Lucene. I'd love to see the Ultraseek spider connected to Solr, but that depends on Autonomy. wunder -- Walter Underwood Search Guru, Netflix
