One index is around 3,000,000 items. I think around 10 fields. I store some and don't others. I index email content and attachment content. I store some smaller fields and not the content fields. That current index is around 10GB but that is nothing that is about to come down the pike. Maybe looking at indexes 10x that.

Thoughts?

Out of curiosity, how big is huge? And how many documents and

And a silly question, are you storing your fields or not (i.e.
Field.Store.NO????

Hello Folks,

I wanted to stay away from storing text in the indexes in order to keep
them smaller.  I have a requirement now though to provide highlighting
and, more so, fragments of the content so they will be displayed on the
UI.

Do you all prefer to store the text in the index to make this easier or
would you suggest retrieving the text from the source after doing your
search.  From I can tell you need to run through the Hits anyway....

I am trying to keep the indexes as small as possible (they are still
HUGE...but...) so storing fields is not really what I want to do.  I
will if it is the best and most efficient way to do so.

Thanks,
Michael
