As an example - index size numbers I saw: when indexing 1M docs of ~20KB of very simple HTML, that is input size of ~19GB, and having only doc name (URL) as a stored field, and no term vectors, index size was ~2.5GB. As Otis said, this really depends on your settings which may be much different from the above, but perhaps this would give you a feeling what you can expect. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
