You don't have to store a field to highlight text. If you've got it in your database, retrieve it from there and pass that string to the highlighter instead.

I'm running into a little dilemma with Lucene highlighting and indexing. I currently index anything and everything that gets inserted into a database. This database includes all the content that is searched. Now I'll have lots and lots of content, thinking of the range of 50GB+, all stored in the DB.
Using Lucene, I index all of this.  But since I'm using highlighting
features, I'll also need to store the content into the index. Not sure what the performance implications are during a search but I know that indexing
performance should be slower as well as the index size being enormous.
Because I have duplicated data, one in the index and the other in the db, are there other ways of handling this situation in a more efficient and
performant way?  Thanks in advance.
