Hi Dan, We use Xindice with collections of several thousand documents, and we have problems with speed when wanting to page through large numbers of documents.
It's fine if you issue a query which only returns a small number of documents, but if the return is large then its rather slow.

We plan on holding several thousand xml documents within the database, growing at a rate of 2000-3000 documents per month. The document size is small ( from 10-100k). Has anyone had any experience with using xindice with a large amount of documents? What is the performance like. What is the best strategy with regards to collections? At the moment they will be stored in 3 collections. Would more collections or sub-collections be more efficient? Regards, Dan
