3. Certainly some of you on this list are using Lucene in a web-app environment. Can anyone list some best practices on managing reading/writing/searching a Lucene index in that context?
Beyond the advice already given on this thread, since you said you were using Tapestry, I keep an IndexSearcher as a transient lazy-init'd property of my Global object. It needs to be transient in case you are scaling with distributed servers in a farm and lazy init'd so to instantiate the first time.
Global, in Tapestry, makes a good place to put index operations. As for searching - a good first try is to re-query for each page of search results (if you're implementing paging of results, that is). It is often fast enough.
