Verity vs. Lucene Free discussion

I was wondering if anyone had done any real world comparisions of doing searches using Verity vs. Lucene and which one won?

One of the problems with Lucene is that you need to supply your own parsers.
CF Verity includes parsers for many of the common formats (even more in
CF7).

Lucene is OK, if you want to index text and HTML in English.
There is a tag, CF_Lindex, out there somewhere (in a MM DRK I think) that
gives you a reasonable tag set that matches the built in one.
But if you are using CFMX, check out the new features available in CFMX 7:
Spelling correction, categorization, result highlighting, improved search
results, etc.
Not to mention that we are including a pretty expensive (check the price!)
enterprise quality search product in CFMX for free!
Yes, I am biased. :-)

With luck it now searches PDF on Solaris without rebooting CF, but I have
yet to test this.

You may want to contact New Atlanta about Lucene. If my memory serves me
correctly, they use it for the CFSEARCH functionality in BlueDragon, so they
should be quite knowledgeable about it. They should at least be able to
refer you to the right sources.

Yes, PDF on Solaris works much better in CFMX 7.
