Hello, I am using indexes that can be as large as 25 Gb. Indexes are created for a specific time window (for instance it can be weekly based). Once the week is passed they are not written to anymore. I have seen the IndexWriter.forceMerge(int) operation, and I had several questions:
- After a forceMerge, what gains should we expect? Less space on disk, or faster searches? - How many maxNumSegments should I target? 1, 5, 10, ...? What are the criterias to decide? Thanks, vince ************************ DISCLAIMER ************************ This message is intended only for use by the person to whom it is addressed.
