Spellchecker doesn't need to store ngrams
-----------------------------------------

                 Key: LUCENE-882
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-882
             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Other
    Affects Versions: 2.1
            Reporter: Daniel Naber
         Attachments: lucene-spellchecker.diff

The spellchecker in contrib stores the ngrams although this doesn't seem to be 
necessary. This patch changes that, I will commit it unless someone objects. 
This improves indexing speed and index size. Some numbers on a small test I did:

Input of the original index: 2200 text files, index size 5.3 MB, indexing took 
17 seconds

Spell index before patch: about 60.000 documents, index size 13 MB, indexing 
took 62 seconds
Spell index after patch: about 60.000 documents, index size 6.3 MB, indexing 
took 52 seconds

BTW, the test case fails even before this patch. I'll probaby submit another 
issue about how to fix that.
