Hi, I've looked the uses of MergeFactor and MaxBufferedDocs.
If I set MergeFactor = 100 and MaxBufferedDocs=250 , then first 100 segments will be merged in RAMDir when 100 docs arrived. At the end of 350th doc added to writer , RAMDir have 2 merged segment files + 50 seperate segment files not merged together and these are flushed to FSDir. If wrong, please correct me. My doubt is whether we should set MergeFactor & MaxBufferedDocs in proportional ratio (i.e) MaxBufferedDocs = n*MergeFactor where n = 1,2 ... to reduce indexing time and get greater performance or no need to worry about it's relation? Thanks & Regards RSK
