Hi,

Export your database-based directory into a normal filesystem (using Directory.Copy), and open it in Luke[1]. The Files tab will show what the different files are used for, and which ones belong to old commits and can be removed.

Have you tried the latest version; 2.9.4?

Hi all, I'm a bit of a newb when it comes to Lucene, but I am in need of some sage counsel.

I have an application that uses the Lucene engine to index various items. We upgraded to Lucene 2.9.2 and we now find that on a re-index of a significantly large project, our index size has doubled (from roughly 73MB to 137MB). This causes significant performance issues especially as we have written a custom Directory that queries the index from a SQL Database instead of a disk file of RAM index.

I was just wondering if anyone knows there would be such a huge increase in index size, and if there are any options/settings we might be able to change to reduce the size of the index?

Thanks heaps.
