Hi Carsten
We have both Fedora 3.1 and 3.2 repositories running on a Linux
RHEL 5.2 system. We also use postgres. The hardware has 8G memory
and a couple of dual core 2.5 GHz CPUs -- none of which is in any
way stretched.
I just re-indexed the 3.2 test repository. To index one object
requires two RESTful calls to Fedora to get the metadata and the
document plain text respectively, and one RESful call to SOLR to
index it. [Each RESTful call is a URL access, travelling through
the TCP/IP stack, Apache, and Tomcat, and then into a Java
application, all on the same host.]
There are 1000 objects in the test data. Indexing takes ~13.5
minutes, or ~0.8 seconds per object. I have previously measured
Fedora 3.1 do the same thing at ~0.7 seconds per object. [I don't
believe that 0.7 is significantly different to 0.8 seconds.]
I have never tried to optimise the indexing speed. It's done in
Perl, using saxon and other tools, and I am quite sure I could make
it go a little faster, but I strongly suspect that most of the time
required is in Fedora itself.
Cheers,
