Yes of course, the answers to your questions are important too. But no anwser at all until now :(
For me I can say (not production yet): 2 ID-Fields and one content field per doc. Seach on content field only. Simple searches like "content:foo" or "content:foo*". 1,5 GB index per 1 million docs. About 50 million docs now. Max. 10 million docs per year increase. So I will have 75 GB index soon. Can searching this index be handled by a single machine?
