I just re-ran the same tests but using SimpleAnalyzer (a lowercase filter only)
This time round responses were : Tokenizing:5 ms avg per doc Highlighting:11 ms avg per doc RAM Indexing docs:39 ms avg per doc RAM indexing still looks to add more than I would like. Having reviewed my previous choice of analyzer the main offender in it's list of filters looks to be "StandardTokenizer". On its own it clocks up an avg 73 ms per doc. To be honest at first glance I dont know what it is trying to do - its JavaCC generated code and its not immediately obvious to me. I do see its using Vectors internally so thats not going to help matters.
