It's not clear to me what this would entail. For performance, Lucene's vector model is, in a sense, "compiled into" Lucene's architecture. For example, Lucene currently has no explicit representation of a vector. Some changes to term weighting or document normalization are easy to make, or make pluggable, but radical changes to the model might require radical architectural changes to Lucene. Can you propose a more general architecture that would still be capable of high-performance?
