I have an app where I take a search string and split it into "tags" (i.e. categories) and regular text. I then use homegrown logic for tag matches, because it's faster/more efficient, and then correlate that with text results from Lucene. So the pathological example was a search for "atlantic fish". That's a restaurant name, but "fish" is also a tag, and it's not tagged with that so it's not matched.
So what I would like to do is say "find the text (TermQuery), but also find a title match (using PhraseQuery)". That part is easy. The trick is I need to know for each text result which of those queries was responsible for the match. Which finally brings me to my question: Is it faster to do two searches, or one search and explain each result, or something entirely different? Thanks! --Max
