I understand your concerns!
I was a little skeptical at the beginning. But even with the 1.5 jvm,
the improvements still holds.
Lucene creates a lots of "garbage" (strings, tokens, ...) either at
index time or query time. While the new garbage collector strategies did
seriously improve since java 1.4, the gains are still there as the
object "creation" is also a cost that javolution easily saves us from.
I think the best approach at convincing people would be to produce a
patch that implements some of the suggested changes, and benchmark it.
As it stands, the positives are all hypothetical and the negatives
rather tangible.
