I have a couple more questions on the FieldValueCache. I see that the number of items in the cache is basically the number of multi-valued fields facets have been requested for. What does each entry in the cache actually contain? How does it's size grow as the number of total documents increases?
Ok, so that was the curiosity question. More critical: When we first ask for facets for multi-valued fields, it can take up to 25 seconds to get the response, although after that it's very fast (1.5 seconds or less even for a lot of different facets) since the FieldValueCache has been populated. Obviously, we'd like to get the FieldValueCache populated, hopefully without an end-user being the one to wait 25 seconds. I think this is what the autowarming settings are about, but I'm not sure how to warm the cache with the specific fields we expect facets to be requested for. Any pointers? -- Stephen Duncan Jr www.stephenduncanjr.com
