Renaud:

Yes or No!. I have done some testing as Dennis Kubes suggested and got
similler results like his test. In short having 4 nutch search servers
 in one box but in 4 different disks with in my case 0.75 mil docs per
disk. I had about 4 gig memory and 1 AMD 64 processor and it worked
out rather ok. I need to do more testing to fine tune this cos this
really brings the issue of cost. I have also thought about doing some
testing with VIA EPIA boards. Maybe in the future :-)

The problem I encountered is more this

http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-92

but this will be solved sooner or later just a matter of time.

Cheers
