Hi, Would anybody like to share some benchmarks or opinios ? In order to scale search database to 100 millions of documents with distributed computing (NFDS)wich you've found or would find best (fastest search time / money cost considering) : small number of "monster" servers (Dual Xeon 3.2GHz / 2 x 73 gb SCSI - 8 x 300GB HD / 12 GB RAM / wich would reach 10 million documents each server) or a large number of smaller servers (Intel Pentium 4 3.0GHz+ / 2 x 300 GB HD / 2 gb RAM / with 1Million ~ 2 million documents each server) ? Also, would you recommend another architeture?
Thanks in advance. Marco
