Currently vizreader.com contains roughly 350 000 articles with a full word index (not partial).
The word index is spread out on "virtual remotes" ie they are not really on remote machines, it's more a way to split up the physical database files on disk (I've written on how that is done on picolisp.com). I have no way of knowing how many words are mapped to their articles like this but most of the database is occupied by these indexes and it currently occupies some 30GB all in all. A search for the word "Google" just took 22 seconds. No other part of the application is lagging significantly except for when listing new articles in my news category due to the fact that there are so many articles in that category. However the fetching method is highly inefficient as I first fetch all feeds in a category and then all their articles and then take (tail) on them to get the 50 newest for instance. Walking and then only loading the wanted articles to memory would of course be the best way and something I will look into. Why don't you try out the application yourself now that you know how big the database is and so on, if you use Google Reader you can just export your subscriptions as an OPML and import it into VizReader.
