IIRC, under the hood, atomic indexing indexes the whole document again even if you might be updating just one field of that document. This costs hugely in terms of indexing performance because the other fields might be requiring some significant heavy tokenization. Is there any way around this?
If you need to be able to query on any of the fields you're modifying in the atomic update, then there is no way to do it without reindexing the whole document.
There is a feature that can do an in-place update, but the field has to be not indexed, not stored, single valued, and have docValues enabled. A field using the TextField class cannot have docValues. It is probably unlikely that the fields you want to update meet these requirements.
