Hi List, I've took some time and made some tests on the performance of java-lucene, hyperestraier and ferret as Dave encourages the community of ferret to do so.
Quite intersting numbers. Ferret indeed deserves to be called a high-performance port!! It's MyFirstBenchmark ( http://ferret.davebalmain.com/trac/wiki/MyFirstBenchmark ) so please don't be too cruel on critizing the method. It's just a hack and it's flawed - as every other benchmark. But it provides some numbers and regardlass how flawed it is, one thing remains true: All of these search engines are fast enough for most of us...
