No, I have both, a single field (for free form text search), and individual
fields (for directed search). I already duplicate the data and that's not a
problem, disk space is cheap. What I wanted to know was whether it is best
to make the single field multiValued="true" or not. That is, should my
'content' field hold data like:
   some description maybe a paragraph or two
   a product or service title
   tag1
   tag2
   feature1
   feature2
or would it be better to make it a concatenated, single value field like:
     some description maybe a paragraph or two a product or service title
tag1 tag2 feature1 feature2

my indexing seems to take longer than most, it takes about 2 1/2 hours to
index 3.5 million records. I have a colleague that, in a separate project,
is indexing 70 million records in about 4 hours, albeit in a much simpler
schema. So I'm trying to see if this could be a factor in my indexing
performance. I also wanted to know what impact, in general, not just in this
situation, using a MultiValued field versus a Single Valued field has in
search results.

I would have thought that having to support a free-form-text search, and a
field (directed) search would be a common problem, and was just looking for
advice.
