Actually the Indexing Service running on Windows Server 2003 is very good.
It's no Google, but it runs well.
Unfortunately there is not a lot of good documentation on Indexing Service out there.
There should be no problem using it for your purposes.
Indexing Service will not crawl pdf documents on it's own, however you can download this component from Adobe to crawl PDF documents, you can download it at http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=2611.
You will need to install it on the server, now Indexing Service will crawl your PDF's.
As far as performance goes you will need to right click on the Indexing Service for the machine you are running it on and select All Tasks/Tune Performance.
Click the Customize radio button and select customize, then move the Indexing slider all the way to the right for Instant.
Hope this helps...
Cheers
