Did you get anywhere with this? 3 secs for one delete is excessive. A job of mine ran earlier today and did 2000+ deletes by term on unique id in less than 9 seconds. The index is smaller, at around 5Gb, but I don't believe that would explain the difference. All the deletes were done in one batch using lucene 2.3.2. Is there a lot of other concurrent activity on the index? On the server? Is it CPU or IO bound? -- Ian.
