>The reason I'm
asking this that I'm still trying to figure out whether having a machine
with huge ram actually helps Lucene, or not.
Thanks,
Nadav.
Memory can help a little at index time, but you will mostly be Disk / IO

out. More spinning disks will help more than extra RAM.
At least in my experience.
