Hi, I went through the IndexModifier class. It says that - Although an instance of this class can be used from more than one thread, you will not get the best performance. You might want to use IndexReader and IndexWriter directly for that (but you will need to care about synchronization yourself then). If I use IndexReader and IndexWriter class for inserts/updates, then I need to handle the threading issues myself. Is there any other class (even in nightly build) that I can use without having to take care of synchronization. Any help/pointers would be appreciated. Thanks, -Vasu
