Ian,

Thanks for solving my previous problems.


Now i tested the compression with 100 docs and found:
  1. With Compression size of FS directory (on disk)= 10.8 KB
  2. Without Compression size of FS directory (on disk) = 12.0 MB

and with 500 docs:
  1. With Compression size of FS directory (on disk) = 45.9 KB
  2. Without Compression size of FS directory (on disk)  = 56.8 MB

I mean do the compression will increase my disk usage ? if so will 50,000
docs take around 6000 MB?
or please tell if am i doing wrong somewhere because i thought compression
will reduce space usage.

Regards,
Suraj
