Have the following problem with (explicitly invoked) index optimization - it seems to always merge all existing index segments into a single huge segment, which is undesirable in my case. Is there a way to force index optimization to honor the IndexWriter.MAX_MERGE_DOCS setting?
It is unclear to me what you hope to accomplish by optimizing in this case. If you set MAX_MERGE_DOCS, lucene will produce a series of segments of (approximately) that size, plus a bounded (log n) number of additional segments, the sum of the size of which is < MAX_MERGE_DOCS. So at best you'd achieve one more segment merged. I doubt optimizing would buy you much, especially as num docs >> MAX_MERGE_DOCS -Mike --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
