Hi, I saw the RAMDirectory examples, but they didn't quite do what I need. The examples I saw showed how to create an in-memory index, write docs to it, then search it. What I need is to read a disk-based index into memory, then search it (entirely in memory, not cached). I will hop over to the Lucene folks. Just wasn't sure if PyLucene supported that specific behavior or not.
Thanks!
