I've found an elegant way of doing this now for all types of search - a new 
NegatingQuery class that takes any Query object in its constructor and 
selects all documents that DONT match and gives them a user-definable boost.

The code is here:

I have very strong Lucene experience, covering 1.2, 1.3, and the current
1.4-almost-an-RC, having built search engines for several web sites with it.

I'm located in Melbourne  not very able to change that, but if you don't
get other bites maybe we can talk about telecommuting  the occasional day
trip?

Mark,

I've added a section in the wiki called:

http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-lucene/CommunityContributions

and have added an entry for your message. If you want to edit the
message, go for it. I believe that the wiki can support attached files if
you want to upload there.

cheers,
sv

Esmond,

Thanks a lot for your email.  Will certainly consider that - do you know
another 1-2 person who also knows Lucene very well, who you can work
with in case we need another person?  No point having 1 developer in
Sydney and one in Melbourne.

To give you a bit more background - we'll be indexing and searching a
database of approx 1.5 million records.  Do you have experience with
this sort of scale?  I don't and I am specifically looking for people
with that.

Thanks,

Anson

Lucene optimization with one large index and numerous small indexes.

2004-03-28 Thread Kevin A. Burton
We're using lucene with one large target index which right now is 5G.  
Every night we take sub-indexes which are about 500M and merging them 
into this main index.  This merge (done via 
IndexWriter.addIndexes(Directory[]) is taking way too much time.

Looking at the stats for the box we're essentially blocked on reads.  
The disk is blocked on read IO and CPU is at 5%.  If I'm right I think 
this could be minimized by continually picking the two smaller indexes, 
merging them, then picking the next two smallest, merging them, and then 
keep doing this until we're down to one index.

Does this sound about right?
