I am deploying a web application serving searches on a Lucene index, and am deciding between distributing search between several machines or single searching, and was hoping that someone could tell me from their experiences:
+ Is there anything particular to watch out for if using distributed searching instead of searching one merged Lucene index? + What should be the size of the index that I am looking at before I need to (or should be) turn to distributed searching to reduce response/search time? I know it would depend a lot on hardware and request frequency but I was wondering if anyone could post their hardware info and index size as a reference of when/if they had to use distributed search due to load issues.
