I have heard of it, but I have heard the index files are not compatible with lucene, and I have heard it is slow.
It is generally twice as fast as Java Lucene and twice as slow as CLucene, a fully native C++ port.
As for the index file incompatibility, I seriously doubt it since PyLucene is compiled from the Lucene 1.4.3 Java sources, so unless there are differences in the Java runtimes (JRE vs GCJ Runtime) causing them to produce different and incompatible index files. I must admit though that I never verified it.
That could be a bug.
PyLucene is a GCJ and SWIG-wrapped version of Java Lucene. It is extremely fast.
