Perhaps it's the same problem as in this post:

http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/84237#151791

There is a 2GB limit to a single index file if you don't compile Ferret
with large-file support.

An alternative is to use :max_merge_docs to stop index merging when
segments reaches a certain size. Like this:

index = Index::Index.new(:path => "path",
                         :max_merge_docs => 150000)
