I know -- I decided to give it a try for the time being while we're  
doing an initial index run and page rank analysis.  The idea being  
that it would be great to jump the gun a little and use the next-gen  
index format, and possibly stick with it if things pan out.

I haven't tried flint; perhaps I should give it a try (and give up on  
the dream-like belief that the latest bleeding-edge chert *must* be  
better :).  Do you have any idea how it compares search  
performance-wise?  Especially with phrase searching?
