I'm currently investigating using PyLucene for a large scale distributed search application which is currently in 95% python with a smattering of c/pyrex for performance. I'm rather impressed with the package, particularly the ability to "subclass" certain lucene classes to provide customization hooks.
I was curious if anyone has done heavy-duty lifting using these reverse bindings. In particulary, I am concerned with subclasses which are tightly coupled with the core lucene query code -- like SortComparator. Does the repeated python<->CNI boundary crossing degrade performance unacceptably? Has anyone had success implementing these sorts of customizations java-side, recompiling the whole package with gcj?
