I am periodically getting "Too many open files" error when searching. Currently
there are over 500 files in my Lucene directory. I am attempting to run optimize( ) to
reduce the number of files. However, optimize never finishes because whenever I run it,
it quits with a Java exception OutOfMemory error. I have tried using the -Xmx and -Xms
switches to increase heap size, but that has not helped.
Any suggestions?
What is mergeFactor set to in your IndexWriter? Decreasing it makes
optimize() take longer, but use less memory. How much RAM does the
machine you're running on have, compared to the size of your index's
documents?
