The reason I asked this is because i read on some articles that lucene is a very fast component capable of searching millions of records of data and gigabytes of files in a matter of microsecs. IF that is the case, i was wondering why a caching layer is necessary on the top of lucene. Is it because file system access is slower than caching on a high traffic site? What do you all think?
