Hi,
I've been comparing Xindice and eXist to find out if either of them can handle the type of usage we require for our project.
For example, maximum number of documents in a single Collection.
Given the simple document :
<test><data attr1="att1" attr2="attr2"/></test>
Xindice 1.0 seems to run out of memory or other resources at about 200 000, while eXist (running in Tomcat) runs out of memory and performance at about 50 000
documents.
Xindice 1.0 uses CORBA for client / server communication, and is known to have some memory leaks (don't know were exactly). I wonder what results of your testing will be against currect CVS of the xindice.
PS You may want to turn off metadata in config/system.xml if you don't need it. It will save CPU cycles and disk space

I'm using default, out the box config for both DB's. I'd appreciate any feedback on similar tests anyone else may have done.
Our project requires we be able to store approximately 500 000 documents, little to no indexing is required.
Does anyone have any ideas of any other DB which will allow us to store this amount of Documents?
I was under the impression this is not an unreasonable amount of documents to have in a Collection, but seems to be way off the scale for
these two DB's.
I suppose my alternative is to write a simple file-based DB which stores each document to disk.
Thanks WH
