Yup... that will choke completely!!!! You need to keep your VDK indexes to around 150MB or less. I've noticed that with my collections they are usually around 5% of the total size of all the documents in the collection. I'm assuming that with 23 GB of docs in the folder your index would probably be around 1.1 GB. This is far too big for the standard VDK to handle. You'll need to split what's there among several different collections. Now, if you want to get fancy and start playing with the Verity Spider, you can create Gargantuan collections that still search pretty quickly. There are numerous posts on the MM Forums about verity and getting the K2 stuff working....
Also, if you need more help, ping me off-llist... I've done a few things with K2.

Win2K Server SP2, dual cpu, 640 MB RAM, over 40 GB disk space free on d: hard disk (where wwwroot is). Created Verity collection on d: rather than on smaller c: which only has "os" type files (cf is on c:). Server running only Win2K with IIS 5 and CF - intranet. CF Pro is 4.5.1 SP2. Indexing runs and runs and runs, with about 40-50% cpu utilization, then browser throws "Cannot find server or DNS error". This even running from IE directly on the server box. Any ideas would be welcome. Unfortunately, we need to index these files to meet a request by the corporate lawyers :-( BTW am only indexing on: doc, .xls, .ppt, .txt, .pdf, *. Thanks, gang. -Ben ______________________________________________________________________ Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
