We are about to purchase a new server to house our lucene.net based search service because our current server is at the end of its service contract and we are having growing pains with other applications running on the box. We need to know if lucene.net is capable of running in a 64 bit environment and if being in a 64 bit environment will increase performance or will it just operate as 32 bit. Has anyone had experience with this type of deployment? Will this allow us to use ram instead of file system. Our index size is > 2 gigs.
Thanks in advance Mark Burks
