Thanks. Can you please point me to the appropriate article (I found one from March 2003, but I'm not sure if it's the one you meant). About mergeFactor() - thanks for the hint, I'll try changing it too (I used 20 so far), and see if it helps performance. Still, there is one thing about mergeFactor(), and the merge process, that I don't understand: does having more memory help this process at all? Does having a large mergeFactor() actually require more memory? The reason I'm asking this that I'm still trying to figure out whether having a machine with huge ram actually helps Lucene, or not. Thanks, Nadav. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
