Stephen Weiss commented on SOLR-236: ------------------------------------ Thank you so much for your prompt response Ivan, I really appreciate your help. I have already maxed out the RAM on the machine - it seems very strange to me that adding a whole other GB of RAM did not fix the issue already. So I will have to try the next option, collapse.maxdocs. How does this work though? Does this mean, let's say I set collapse.maxdocs to 10000, that means the first 10000 documents will be collapsed, and after that they won't be? Or is it more random? > Field collapsing > ---------------- > > Key: SOLR-236 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-236 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: search > Affects Versions: 1.3 > Reporter: Emmanuel Keller > Fix For: 1.5 > > Attachments: collapsing-patch-to-1.3.0-dieter.patch, > collapsing-patch-to-1.3.0-ivan.patch, collapsing-patch-to-1.3.0-ivan_2.patch, > collapsing-patch-to-1.3.0-ivan_3.patch, > field-collapsing-extended-592129.patch, field_collapsing_1.1.0.patch, > field_collapsing_1.3.patch, field_collapsing_dsteigerwald.diff, > field_collapsing_dsteigerwald.diff, field_collapsing_dsteigerwald.diff, > SOLR-236-FieldCollapsing.patch, SOLR-236-FieldCollapsing.patch, > SOLR-236-FieldCollapsing.patch, solr-236.patch > > > This patch include a new feature called "Field collapsing". > "Used in order to collapse a group of results with similar value for a given > field to a single entry in the result set.
