In our experience (small often-updated documents) Lucene leaves
tsearch2 in the dust. This probably has a lot to do with our usage
pattern though. For our usage it's very beneficial to have the index
on a separate machine to the data, however in many cases this won't
make sense. Lucene is also a lot easier to "cluster" than Postgres
(it's simply a matter of NFS-mounting the index).
