Hi, I have an application that has an index with 30 millions docs in it. every day, I add around 1 million docs, and I remove the oldest 1 million, to keepit stable at 30 million. for the most part doc fields are indexed and stored. each doc weighs around from a few Kb to a 1 Mb (a few Mb in some cases). I used to be able to maintain the index at around 60 Gb on disk. but recently the index has had a tendency to keep growing (90 Gb). I can see that the expunge is doing what it should do, because after it executes, the size on disk does go down, but never as low as the previous day. from the outside, it looks like a leak, but since I do not remove the docs I added during the day, it might be that the new docs are just bigger than the old ones. still I am surprised with the increase.
are there any tools to dig into the index structure and help justify the space taken on disk? I was thinking about something that would help identify terms that take up the most space, or some sort of dump that I could compare from one day to the other. any help appreciated, thanks, vince ************************ DISCLAIMER ************************ This message is intended only for use by the person to whom it is addressed.
