Hi,
thanks for the reply. Yes, after the first slow search, subsequent searches 
have good performance.

I guess the issue is why exactally, is createValue taking so long, or should it 
take so long (4 ~ 5 minutes ).
Given roughly 27million terms, each of roughly 8 characters long and few other 
bytes for the TermInfo record,
a modern disk can easily read over the portion of the index (the .frq portion ) 
in a few seconds. Also,
when I use tools like dstat, I see bunch of 1kb reads initiated while running 
createValue.
