I'm using Ferret to index a whole bunch of stuff at once. Thousands of documents that produce an index which grows to about 1.25Gb. While the indexer is running, I watch the memory use of the Ruby process grow steadily until it, too, is up to about 1.25Gb -- at which point the process crashes printing:
[FATAL] failed to allocate memory Does anyone else have any experience with this mode of failure? Should I not try to create the index all at once, but rather do a few documents then close the index then re-open it then do a few more? Or is a 1.25Gb index simply too big to try to create on my machine?
