Increasing the MergeFactor on an IndexWriter can speed the indexing process tremendously. However, you can quickly run out of file descriptors and the indexing application will thorw java.io.FileNotFoundException:.....(Too many open files)
I know prefectly how to increase the number of available file descriptors on Unix (ulimit -n 1000).
