Sanne,
  as I read the documentation originally, it uses the stringValue() method on Fieldable to get the string, so it just pushes the toString down the line so-to-speak.  I'll look into what Fieldable can do and suggest changes to the documentation if you'd like.  

BTW, the first one is to modify the documentation to either:
# more clearly link the source 
# provide the complete object definition of the LazyField

BTW, the first one is to modify the documentation to define LazyField more directly to explicitly implement Fieldable.

> The current hibernate search functionality is not optimized for dealing with large text contents.  Two use cases:
> 1. indexing an external PDF that's 100MB where an @Field is set on a getter
> 2. indexing a @Lob field
> in both cases, the method must return a string, or a base class, which might mean that you have an InputStream that's 50MB, which gets concatenated into a string, and then passed to an analyzer bundled into a Reader object.  I'm unclear what HibernateSearch is doing when the getter for the @Field annotation is called, but it would be ideal if it could use a reader instead of a string
