We did extensive comparison in the past for Snowball, KStem and Hunspell and there are cases where one of them works better but not other or vice-versa. You may utilise all three of them by having 3 different fields (fieldTypes) and during query, search in all of them.
For some of the cases where none of them works (e.g wolves, wolf etc)., use StemOverriderFactory. HTH.
