My point is more that you don't necessarily need to go looking for variants. I've seen Lucene Java scale to millions no problem. I talked w/ a guy using Solr this past week who had ~80 million records in a single 80 gb index on one machine.

If I had a PHP front end, I would most likely start with Solr and it's PHP client. No sense in reinventing the wheel, IMO.

Yes i saw that.. it talks about performance, but not about the variants i
mentioned before.
Actually i tested indexing a database of about 200.000 registers. As i
mentioned it works fine with response of less than a second. But this
database can grow to millions of registers, and not sure if i am choosing
the best architecture for that step to allow simultaneous accesing.

Thanks for the help

Before we go solving a problem that isn't necessarily there, can you
share a bit about what sizes you are at currently?  Num docs, index
size, query rate?

Have you looked at http://wiki.apache.org/lucene-java/BasicsOfPerformance

I just made a program using the java api of Lucene. Its is working
fine for
my actually index size. But i am worried about performance with an
biger
index and simultaneous users access.

1) I am worried with the fact of having to make the program in java. I
searched for alternative like the C Port, but i saw that the version
used
its a little old an no much people seem to use that.

2) I also thinking in compiling the code with cgj to generate native
code
and not use the jvm. Anybody tried it ? Can be an advantage that could
aproximate to the performance of a C program ?

3) I wont use an application server, i will call the program
directly from a
php page, is there any architecture model suggested for doing that?
I mean
for preview many users accessing to the program. The fact of
initiating one
isntance each time someone do a query and opening the index should not
degrade the performance?

You shouldn't be instantiating a Reader/Searcher for each query.  See
the link above.
