Thanks for the quick response Jokin, We are currently building a search solution that has a 3.6 g index Max concurrent reads at the moment is 54, but we are hoping that this will increase significantly as the website traffic increases This will be a read only index, with a deployment of a new index nightly.
On another note, We are considering running searches against the index using a FSDirectory. Is this how you have your search or do you load the index into a RAMDirectory?
