FYI: The synonyms implementation supports multiple formats (currently "solr" and "wordnet") I think. Its possible that it could have another format "binary" or "serialized" which is essentially the serialized byte[] of the FST. This would be smaller on disk and faster to load, since it wouldnt really have to 'build' itself (it would be pre-built). In the initial implementation I didnt add this, as I wasn't sure if this would have any real value, especially since the build time is a lot faster now, but it is something that is possible. -- lucidimagination.com
