IndexSearchers are thread safe, so you can use the same object on multiple 
requests.  If the index is static and not constantly updating, just keep one 
IndexSearcher for the life of the app.  If the index changes and you need that 
instantly reflected in the results, you need to check if the index has changed, 
if it has create a new cached IndexSearcher.  To check for changes use you'll 
need to monitor the version number of the index obtained via

IndexReader.getCurrentVersion(Index Name)

Try a singleton pattern or an static field.
