Lucene 4.2.1 I am moving my application from 3.6 to 4.2.1. At the moment I have a reader for each of my shards (100 shards each about 5 million records). I am considering using a MultiReader for all the shards. The application gets about 2 million new records a week. Right now I don't have a full index to test on.
My question is - approximately how many records can a Reader handle? Does anybody know about memory constraints or size constraints? Do to space constraints I can't build a full index for testing until I have something that I can nearly guarantee will work. Thanks Liz
