Exactly. 

That means that  last query "Lucene OR Query" must be parsed correct to "Lucene 
query" with the OR operator while default operator is set to AND. Right?

But in my implementation with default operator set to AND the query 'Hare OR 
Tortoise' is parsed to 'Hare AND Tortoise'!

<<<How else would you explain the 316 search results, when the results for

Because some documents contain "Lucene" but not "Query" and vice-versa.

These results look perfectly reasonable to me too. The default operator is
AND, which is why queries 3 and 4 return the same results.

When you query on "Query" you get some number of documents (109 to be exact)
that ALSO contain "Lucene". The reverse is also true, when you query
"Lucene", 109 of those documents also contain "Query".

So, if you subtract 109 (look familiar?) from the sum of the individual
queries for Lucene and Query, you get 316 (155 + 270 - 109) which is exactly
what you get from "Lucene OR Query". All fine from my perspective.

Erick
