Yes, that's the case - for the early access version at least. The public 
version on TER / forge works like indexed search through frontend

yes, committing too often can affect your search's performance - for 
large indexes at least. For smaller sites it shouldn't matter much.

The early access version comes with a record monitor that puts changes 
into the Index Queue which is then processed by a scheduler task.
