I must note that my patch only helps in lucene-OOM situations related to _sorted_ queries. If this is your case than I think yes it will help.
Probably a newbie question, but can you please explain what sorted queries mean? Is simple keyword search a sorted query?
In my app currently index is not so big, only 1mln docs. With the patch applied sample query giving first 30 of 120,000 sorted results made memory consumption jump from 18M to 20M according to jconsole.

First there's performance cost (for second and further queries with the same IndexSearcher). In default implementation all the index values of sorted field are cached during the first sorted search - this takes memory and time; but next queries run fast if there still some memory left. My implementation doesn't cache field values but loads them from respective documents on the fly - so it's slower but takes less memory. The query mentioned took about 3s (with rather small sorted fields values - about 20-100 chars). There's a limitation also - my implementation requires sorted field to be "stored" in index (Field.Store.YES in doc.add()) NB> Bublic, can you tell me what exactly I need to do if I want to use this patch? You can include StoredFieldSortFactory class source file into your sources and then use StoredFieldSortFactory.create(sortFieldName, sortDescending) to get Sort object for sorting query. StoredFieldSortFactory source file can be extracted from LUCENE-769 patch or from sharehound sources: http://sharehound.cvs.sourceforge.net/*checkout*/sharehound/jNetCrawler/src/java/org/apache/lucene/search/StoredFieldSortFactory.java Regards, Artem NB> thanks NB> Nilesh NB> On 4/6/07, Bublic Online <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> Hi Ivan, Chris and all! >> >> I'm that contributor of LUCENE-769 and I recommend it too :) >> OutOfMemory error was one of main reasons for me to make it. >> >> Regards, >> Artem Vasiliev >> >> On 4/6/07, Chris Hostetter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> > >> > >> > : The problem I suspect is the sorting.
