For my purposes, the Porter analyzer was overly aggressive with stemming. So, we then moved to KStem. It looks like this is no longer being maintained and Lucid claimed much better performance with theirs, so I gave that a try and it seems to be working fine. I didn't do any benchmarks though.
And I just took the war in LucidWorks\dist. I think in the install instructions, there was also a script to apply to the included source code as well. I did that as well since I look at the source regularly. I didn't look at LudidGlaze or any of the other Lucid features. -Kevin ________________________________ From: blargy <zman...@hotmail.com> To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Sent: Tue, March 16, 2010 12:31:09 PM Subject: Re: LucidWorks Solr Kevin, When you say you just included the war you mean the /packs/solr.war correct? I see that the KStemmer is nicely packed in there but I don't see LucidGaze anywhere. Have you had any experience using this? So I'm guessing you would suggest using the LucidWorks solr.war over the apache-solr-war just because of the various bug-fixes/tests. As a side question. Is there a reason you choose the LucidKStemmer over any other stemmers (KStemmer, Porter, etc)? I'm unsure of which stemmer would work best. Thanks again!
