Thanks, that's exactly what I was thinking.  Do you have any recommendations
on maximum index size (obviously we'd be testing ourselves, but its good to

Searches tend to get too slow somewhere betwen 10M and 100M pages.

Using a sorted index (IndexSorter & searcher.max.hits) can improve the situation dramatically but may not be appropriate for all applications. For a discussion of this feature, see:
