Tried with a larger set of documents (2,000,000 ) this time.
ThreadedIndexWriter
-------------------------------
Size - 1.4 G
optimized - yes (as suggested by Phil)
Number of documents - 1,999,924 (Not idea where the 76 documents
vanished...)
Number of terms - 3,638,801
IndexWriter
---------------
Size - 1.8 G (Noticed the size difference factor reduced to 23%)
optimized - yes
Number of documents - 2,000,000 (All of them got in)
Number of terms - 10,624,806
I think it's getting complicated with more unanswered questions..
1. Why didn't those 76 docs get in while using ThreadedIndexWriter ?
2. Why would the number of terms triple for a difference of 76
documents out of 2 million?
3. And, my original question..why there is still a huge variation in
size difference b/n the two indexes
Thanks,

Hi,
Sorry to jump in, but I've been following this thread with
interest :)...
Am I misunderstanding your original observation, that
ThreadedIndexWriter produced smaller index? Did the
ThreadedIndexWriter also finish faster (I'm assuming that it should)?
If the index is smaller, and everything else being good and equal,
doesn't that mean that using ThreadedIndexWriter is a good thing?
Anyway, aside from checking that the # of documents were the same,
have you looked at the index using something like Luke? Does the
contents of the index look the same in both cases, or were they
different? If different, how so (e.g., missing terms, etc.)?
Later,
Jim

I haven't altered the benchmark/ code, but, used a profiler to
verify that Benchmark main thread is closed only after all other
threads are closed.

Hmm... this doesn't sound right.
That example (ThreadedIndexWriter) is meant to be a drop-in
replacement, wherever you use an IndexWriter, that keeps an
under-the-hood thread pool (using java.util.concurrent.*) to
add/update documents with multiple threads.
It should not result in a smaller index.
Can you sanity check the index? Eg is numDocs() the same for both?
You definitely called close() on the writer, right? That method
waits
for all threads to finish their work before actually closing.

While trying out a few tuning options using contrib/benchmak as
described in
LIA (2nd edition) book, I had an interesting observation.
If I use a ThreadedIndexWriter (picked the example from lia2e,
page 356)
instead of IndexWriter, the index size got reduced by 40%
compared to using
IndexWriter.
Index related configuration were the same for both the tests in
the alg
file.
I am curious how come using a threaded index writer will have an
impact on
the index size.
Appreciate your input.
Thanks,
