[pylucene-dev] PyLucy ?

[Jack L]

Hello Andi,

This is about an earlier email of yours. Was it the indexing speed
or searching speed?

I read online that gcj is typically slower than java. Any idea why
PyLucene is actually faster?

-- 
Best regards,
Jack

> Last I compared Java Lucene and PyLucene, PyLucene seemed twice as fast.
> This was on my old Powerbook G4 running Apple's VM and gcj 3.4.
> Years have gone by since... Still, at the time, PyLucene was also twice as
> slow as CLucene, the native C++ port.

> In general, java benchmarks are fraught with little details that can affect
> their results noticeably, so take my results with a grain of salt as well.
