-------------------------------------

> But I can share the generic information about how many fields and how we got 
> into that place.

Ok. I don't think many people have a million fields to index... A few dozen, 
perhaps a few hundred... but millions sounds odd.


> No way to limit the fields cached in memory and leads to OOM when there are 
> thousand of fields (thousands)

> I am opening this defect to get some guidance on how to handle a case of 
> server running out of memory and it seems like it's something to do how we 
> index. But want to know if there is anyway to reduce the impact of this on 
> memory usage before we look into the way of reducing the number of fields. 
> Basically we have many thousands of fields being indexed and it's causing a 
> large amount of memory being used (25GB) and eventually leading to 
> application to hang and force us to restart every few minutes.
