The index directory that Lucene created has 2,322 files in it. When I try to open it I get the dreaded "Too Many Open Files" problem: java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\Index\_1lvq.f107 (Too many open files)
The index has about 50,000 docs in it. It was created with a merge factor of 5,000. Is there a way that I can reduce the number of files or increase the number of files that windows can open?
5000 is way too large for the merge factor. Please read the FAQ and other messages on this list for guidelines. I've personally never found use for a merge factor larger than 50.
