Blargy - Please try to quote the mail you're responding to, at least
the relevant piece. It's nice to see some context to the discussion.

Is there an alternative for highlighting on a large stored field?
Not currently.
I thought
for highlighting you needed the field stored?
You do.
Not sure if this is because of the index size (17.5G) or because of
highlighting but our slave servers are experiencing high loads...
possibly
due to replication???? That actually leads me to my next question, I
thought
replication would only download new segments without the need to
always
re-download the whole index. This doesn't appear to be the case from
what
I'm seeing. Am I wrong?
Depends - if you optimize the index on the master, then the entire
index is replicated. If you simply commit and let Lucene take care of
adding segments you'll generally reduce what is replicated.
