I don't know if it's normal, per se, but we experienced the same thing with far far fewer pages than 5000. Maybe on the order of 75-100 pages. Most searches were fine, but certain words that would be common search terms on our site would for some reason totally kill it. CPU usage and load on the machine would go through the roof and all the web applications would stop responding. We ended up switching to indexing the site with Nutch and implementing the search in a separate webapp.
