--> open files (-n) 11095 thats quite a ok setting though... the problem I see here is that there are some tests around that could produce tons of files due to some settings like maxBufferedDocs = 2 if then no merge policy is used we getting pretty close to those limits. The problems on the userlist are coming up since ever.... not sure what to do here then.. simon > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
