My project is looking to index 10s of millions of documents, providing search across a live-live environment (hence index distribution/replication is important). Most searches have to be done (ie to end user) in 5 seconds or less. The index has about 30 fields, and I reckon that the security access I alluded to can be solved with field-specific queries (as opposed to a single copyFielded text field).
The searches are very simple, but need to be quick. The "confidence" in the information is important, and so scoring is value. Faceted searches have a place too. Autonomy seems to have a solid security/access control model but offers nothing above and beyond Solr, unless I am missing something. Dunno if that helps?
