Solr 1.4 has been released. OK. its old news. Exactly one month old actually.
However… the release doesn't include Lucene's FastVectorHighlighter.
I ended up writing my own simple plumbing code to fillin the gap for now.
My own informal testing showed a 40-60% decrease in highlighting times for largish (1MB+ in size) documents. Definitely impressive.
