Hi,

I have about 40 indices which range in size from 10MB to 700MB.  There are 
quite a few stored fields.  To get an idea of the document size, I have about 
400k documents in the 700MB index.

Depending on the query, I choose the index which needs to be searched.  Each 
query hits only one index.  I was wondering if creating a single index where 
every document will have the indexname as a field will be more efficient.  I 
created such an index and it was 3.4 GB in size.  My initial performance tests 
with it are not conclusive.

Also, what are the other points to be addressed while deciding between 1 index 
and 40 indices.

I have 8GB RAM on the machine.


Thanks,
Nikhil
