Hi, after an hour of indexing on a cluster I got 100 Indexes, ca. 25MB each, 2 indexed fields. I intend now to run code roughly like
IndexWriter writer = new IndexWriter(destDir, ...); writer.addIndexes(my100IndexDirs); writer.close() When I did this a year ago, I know I had tough problems getting around memory limitations and open file limits at the same time. In the end it worked with writer.mergeFactor==4000, but I think it was a specially tweaked kernel on Linux which I don't have anymore. Since I don't really understand yet how open files, segments, memory use, indexing time and mergeFacter interact, I would appreciate a good gues how to combine these indexes. Which mergeFactor to use? Use a different strategy then the 3 lines shown above? Thanks, Harald. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Harald Kirsch | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | +44 (0) 1223/49-2593 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
