Be sure to check out this post: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1051847/why-does-tokyo-ty... I did some experimentation with tokyo* and experienced that slowdown myself. I just didn't want to disable journaling in the end...

Indeed, seems like a great framework. Considering the timespan of the project, I had to rely on something I'm pretty ok at (Ruby), but I remember hitting a lot of posts about scrapy on the way

The crawler currently runs on a single large EC2 instance. I could see myself trying to use a bunch of EC2 micro instances instead and then use Riak + Riak Search. I actually tried putting a dump of the data into Riak and it seemed to hold

I don't really know what the "managed through Drupal nodes" means in this context. For a simple drupal fulltext search I can recommend apache solr ( http://drupal.org/project/apachesolr ). For regular crawling: I found anemone ( http://a
