Subject: Re: Embedded about 50% faster for indexing
One thing I'd like to avoid is everyone trying to embed just
for performance gains. If there is really that much
difference, then we need a better way for people to get that
without resorting to Java code.

Theoretically and practically, embedded solution will be faster than
going through http/xml.
This is only true if the http interface adds significant overhead to
the cost of indexing a document, and I don't see why this should be
so, as indexing is relatively heavyweight. setting up the connection
could be expensive, but this can be greatly mitigated by sending more
than one doc per http request, using persistent connections, and
threading.
