Likely not; I think my goal is better stated as wanting an an average commit time of less than 500ms - 1s, which fits in pretty well with the 'near real-time' concept. > You can get a 30-second garbage collection pause with 8-16G of ram. > Only for a full mark-and-sweep, which doesn't need to happen that often; if you're regularly doing 30s GC pauses, you have other far more pressing problems to solve than indexing speed. We don't mind having an occasional long delay between commiting data and being able to find that data, as long as the average is somewhere south of a second or so, and Lucene's NRS looks like it will provides that level of 'realtimeness'.
