I think you are very mistaken.  If indexing involve generating an inverted
index (as essentially all decent indexes do), the difference is between
maintaining an index with 20 or 30 terms versus an index with 15 or 20 or
thousands terms.  Since the algorithms are generally *not* O(n), that sort
of difference cannot be ignored.
