Is this what you are meaning ? http://www.google.com/enterprise/gsa/
Lucene is quite fast too. This looks like an interesting use case when you have lots of data not only in the wiki but outside of it too and you want a single aggregated search.
I may be wrong in the case of the expensive GSA but Google public-web- search engine updates very slowly compared to site-hosted searches (about 1 month).
Two more comparison points:- Google has good document-processors, e.g. for word, pdfs, ps, ... that may be worth considering to plug into lucene search (many lucene plugins analyze fancy document formats).
- Google cannot do an amount of the fuzzy matching that Lucene can do, among others the usage of the metaphone or soundex analyzers. Again, to my knowledge.
But if performance is your criterion than Lucene is a better friend I feel.
