Thank you Tom for your response, please see below.
This is a random behavior. I haven't quite been able to track it down. If you can tell me more about your platform, I can attempt to recreate it. I haven't noticed it on Solaris or Mac OS X in a while.
My OS is Microsoft Windows 2000 server 5.0.2195 service pack 1.
Xindice uses a paged file system that maintains BTrees of information. A Page is 4k in size by default, so even if you add a document that is 100 bytes, it will consume 4k. You can tweak the size of pages when you create a collection, but generally it's a good idea to have them be a multiple of the file system's block size. In many file systems, it's 4k. Some are 512bytes.
Forgive my ignorance, but I don't think I saw it anywhere how to tweak the size of the page when creating a collection, can you please tell me how I can do that? Maybe I should do some benchmarkings on that too.
