Hi Solr Devs, I have always had this question at the back of my mind and I would love to know the answers to a couple of questions.
1. Does using int for document ids place any restrictions on the number of documents that can be stored in a single index? I am assuming we cannot go beyond 2 to power 31 minus 1 documents but I have not actually test this yet. 2. What would it take to change the core to use long instead of int for document ids? 3. Would there be any practical gains or benefits of making such a change? I initially wanted to send this question to the Stomp the Chomp challenge but I figured it would be better to open it to all. Any useful feedbacks will be highly appreciated. -- °O° "Good Enough" is not good enough. To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift. Quality First. Measure Twice.
