Re: Configuring Solr to use RAMDirectory
Hi Dipti, Just out of curiosity, are you trying to use RAMDirectory for improvement in speed? I tried doing that and did not see any significant improvement. Would be nice to know what your experiment shows. - Raghu On Thu, Dec 31, 2009 at 4:17 PM, Erik Hatcher wrote: > It's possible, but requires a custom DirectoryFactory implementation. > There isn't a built in factory to construct a RAMDirectory.

Re: Configuring Solr to use RAMDirectory
It's possible, but requires a custom DirectoryFactory implementation. There isn't a built in factory to construct a RAMDirectory. You wire it into solrconfig.xml this way: class="[fully.qualified.classname]"> On Dec 31, 2009, at 5:06 AM, dipti khullar wrote: Hi Can somebody let me know if its possible to configure RAMDirectory from solrconfig.xml.

Re: Configuring Solr to use RAMDirectory
Hi Can somebody let me know if its possible to configure RAMDirectory from solrconfig.xml. Although its clearly mentioned in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-465 by Mark that he has worked upon it, but still I couldn't find any such property in config file in Solr 1.4 latest download. May be I am overlooking some simple property. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Configuring Solr to use RAMDirectory
I thought that SOLR-465 just does what is asked, i.e. one can use any Directory implementation including RAMDirectory. Thomas, take a look at it.

Re: Configuring Solr to use RAMDirectory
I think not out of the box, but look at SOLR-243 issue in JIRA. You could also put your index on ram disk (tmpfs), but it would be useless for writing to it. Note that when people ask about loading the whole index in memory explicitly, it's often a premature optimization attempt.
