Re: Solr in virtual host as opposed to /lib
I think you guys are talking about two different kinds of 'virtual hosts'. Lance is talking about CPU virtualization. Eric appears to be talking about apache virtual web hosts, although Eric hasn't told us how apache is involved in his setup in the first place, so it's unclear. Assuming you are using apache to reverse proxy to Solr, there is no reason I can think of that your front-end apache setup would effect CPU utilizaton by Solr, let alone by nutch.

RE: Solr in virtual host as opposed to /lib
Excellent information. Thank you. Solr is acting just fine then. I can connect to it no issues, it indexes fine and there didn't seem to be any complication with it. Now I can rule it out and go about solving, what you pointed out, and I agree, to be a java/nutch issue. Nutch is a crawler I use to feed URL's into Solr for indexing. Nutch is open source and found on apache.org Thanks for your time. -Original Message- From: Jonathan Rochkind [mailto:rochk...@jhu.edu] Sent: Sunday, October 31, 2010 4:33 PM To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: RE: Solr in virtual host as opposed to /lib What servlet container are you putting your Solr in?

Re: Solr in virtual host as opposed to /lib
With virtual hosting you can give CPU memory quotas to your different VMs. This allows you to control the Nutch v.s. The World problem. Unforch, you cannot allocate disk channel. With two i/o bound apps, this is a problem. On Sun, Oct 31, 2010 at 4:38 PM, Eric Martin e...@makethembite.com wrote: Excellent information. Thank you. Solr is acting just fine then.
