I've really got to echo Michael's comment. This really feels like an XY problem, you're asking how to do X because you think it'll solve Y without really explaining what Y is.
If this is some kind of _temporary_ index where you want to index a few docs and, for some reason do _not_ want the data to be persisted then RAMDirectory is probably what you want to use. MemoryIndex is (generally) more suitable for single documents. Neither of those is going to give you significant improvements over just indexing to a "regular" Lucene index which uses MMapDirectory as the blog Michael pointed you to explains.
