Gang,

Would it be possible to modify Nutch so that a set of search servers each had a local index, but that this index referred to segments living in NDFS? Doing so would allow us to skip exporting the segments from NDFS to the local FS. Of course, it would be ideal to keep the crawling machines separate from the search servers, but resource constraints do have a way of intruding... It seems like this setup might provide sufficient performance, because only the summaries in the current page of search results require segment reading.

While we're on the subject of exporting segments to support searching, which subdirs within the segment directories are required for searching, building summaries, and displaying hits?

Thanks,

- Chris
