Hello Soir, Soir looks like an excellent API and its nice to have a tutorial that makes it easy to discover the basics of what Soir does, I'm impressed. I can see plenty of potential uses of Soir/Lucene and I'm interested now in just how real-time the queries made to an index can be?
For example, in my application I have time ordered data being processed by a paint method in real-time. Each piece of data is identified and its associated renderer is invoked. The Java2D renderer would then lookup any layout and style values it requires to render the current data it has received from the layout and style indexes. What I'm wondering is if this lookup which would be a Lucene search will be fast enough? Would it be best to make Lucene queries for the relevant layout and style values required by the renderers ahead of rendering time and have the query results placed into the most performant collection (map/array) so renderer lookup would be as fast as possible? Or can Lucene handle many individual lookup queries fast enough so rendering is quick? Best regards from Canada, Thom
