Actually, prior to OSX you had to designate a volume to be indexed, 
schedule a time, usually at a time when you were not working on the 
computer, and the index file could become quite large.

As I said in a previous post, I created a word document with a unique 
word in it, saved the file, then immediately searched for that word 
and the file was found.  So it may be indexing, but it is integrated 
into the OS in a very different way than previous versions of the OS. 
Perhaps is is a GUI version of grep, I am not that technically 
knowledgeable, but it is certainly different than the indexing of 
OS9.x
