timeAllowed can be used outside distributed search. It is used by the TimeL¡mitingCollector. When the search time is equal to timeAllowed it will stop searching and will return the results that could find till then. This can be a problem when using incremental indexing. Lucene starts searching from "the bottom" and new docs are inserted on the top, so, timeAllowed could cause that new docs never appear on the search results.
