Anyone have any further details on this?

The first author of the paper is also the founder of the company which sells the software described, so these benchmarks should not be considered entirely objective.

That's not to say that IXE is not faster than Lucene, it might well be. But they do not list any JVM details, the Lucene version or any Lucene options. Chances are, with a few informed tweaks, one could improve Lucene's performance on this benchmark. Chances are also that IXE was configured for optimal performance on this benchmark, since it was performed by the authors of IXE.


Not only that, they mention that each test was run _twice_ to get an average score. With hotspot JVMs this is ridiculous, you need to run at least a dozen or more cycles so that the hotspots are recompiled... This alone discredits the results in my eyes.
