It depends what you call a server : - 4 dual Xeon, 64G RAM, 1TB of 15000 rpm raid10 hard-disks is one thing - 1 P4, 512M RAM, 40G 5400 rpm hard-disk, Win2K is completly something else
It depends on index structure and the size of the documents you index/store . It depends on the way you query your index: - simple TermQuery, top 500 by relevancy, should be fast - complicated fuzzy and prefix query sorted by a string field, retrieving 10k stored document, will be definitely slow It depends what it "slow" for you...1 msec, 50 msec, 1 sec, 1 min ? I saw indexes with 100 millions documents and tens of Gb in size with reasonable performances (on reasonable hardware) On Tue, Mar 3, 2009 at 05:40, buddha1021 <buddha1...@yahoo.cn> wrote: > > hi: > how many size of the index is the lucene's limit on per server ?
