Yes, versions of Lucene have changed, but should only be faster. A simple way to see what's happening is to get the thread dump (e.g. through Solr admin pages) to see what the JVM is doing when things slow down. Do a few dumps and see. Perhaps the avg indexing rate is slower due to larger index segments?
