I am currently exploring how to solve performance problems I encounter with Lucene document reads.
We have amongst other fields one field (default) storing all searchable fields. This field can become of considerable size since we are indexing documents and store the content for display within results. I noticed that the read can be very expensive. I wonder now if it would make sense to add this field as Field.Store.Compress to the index. Can someone tell me if this would speed up the document read or if this is something only interesting for saving space. Thanks in advance, Andreas
