Mark, I'm not sure exactly how to disable the solr webapplication. Any suggestions?
The file access is pretty quick. We've never had any trouble before. We have an app server for running the webapps and a storage server for everything else. --Jason Fowler, CA, MSLS ________________________________________ From: [email protected] [[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mark Diggory [[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, April 01, 2010 11:31 PM To: Jason Fowler Cc: Stuart Lewis; [email protected] Subject: Re: [Dspace-tech] DSpace 1.6 & Handle server It looks like the delay is before the solr servlet init log entry is being called, IE before solr is loaded, disable the solr webapplication from loading and test if the delay is still there Likewise, what is the storage mount situation you are using here? If file access is slow across this mount, that be slowing Lucene access within Solr. You may try, moving your solr data directory onto the local file system and testing if that speeds your loading time. Finally, we have rather large solr indexes of statistics in production that do not have load times anywhere near this degree of slowness.
