Hi again :) Hits versus HitCollector I implemented HitCollector, but it didn't seem much faster. I'm guessing its because Hits doesn't seem to run all the way through the resultset before finishing whereas HitsCollector does ?
So, What I'd really like to know, is, does a Hits combined with HitCollector make sense ? Looking at the code, there seems to be a magical getMoreDocs, which calls a private method that returns the topN results (without enumerating the whole list?) I also think I need to be able to externalise the whole Document concept -- I don't need the data stored in the Index -- just the DocID would suffice, then I could reference this from a big array (I have a couple of Gigs of RAM to play with). I'm down to about 200msecs response time for 8 million short records. I need it below 50 (ideally around 5 :)).
