It will be tons faster than searching in the database and will likely
require less code.   Lucene and other indexing solutions are likely
overkill.

I'd agree if you're just doing exact matching... but if you're wanting a "Did you mean..." feature or if you want to implement boost factors, or many of the other common search mechanisms then you might find that implementing that yourself is more effort than utilizing an existing (and pretty good) open source codebase like Lucene.
