I am currently dealing with lucene indexes of the size of 8 GIG. Searching is fast but retrieving documents slow down the process of returning results to the user. Also the index is updated very frequently, about 3 times a minute and more. This leads to an index that grows very fast in number of index files. I have also multiple indexes Lucene has to search accross with the Multiple Index Searcher.
I wonder what index size other people deal with and what kind of recommendation one can give to deal with such a size. Should I try to avoid too many updates? Also the optimizing process seems to take a long time (I have seen optimization time up to two hours. Thanks for any help and hints.
