If you don't do this, the number of different terms will be the same as
the number of documents you indexed, explaining the slowing down when you
have more results.

I wholeheartedly concur. And in fact I don't use the Keyword(String, Date) thing at all if I just need to represent a date. I use YYYYMMDD as a String instead. It's just too fiddly to deal with dates using the built-in handling of it.
