I got a quick question. I am handling hughe CSV files. They start with a key in the first column and are followed by data. I need to retrieve randomly this data based on the key. So it is kind of a search where I give a unique key and ideally access to the right line. The file contains about 200.000 lines or more. I am not sure if Lucene can handle things like that and I did not really find a hint on this topic. So I hope to find help here.
Is that all you're doing? You could accomplish the above with Lucene but it isn't really needed for that. You need some kind of on-disk key->value mapper. Something like a berkeley db hashtable or btree should work (store each line as a key/value pair).
