Re: Out Of Memory =( Too many cores on one server?
I have personally found that increasing the size of the young generation (Eden) is beneficial to Solr, I've seen the same thing - I think it's because requests create a lot of short lived objects and if the eden is not large enough, a lot of those objects will make it to the tenured space, which is basically an alg fail. It's not a bad knob to tweak, because if you just keep raising the heap, you can wastefully keep giving more unnecessary RAM to the tenured space when you might only want to give more to the eden space. - Mark On Wed, Nov 21, 2012 at 11:00 AM, Shawn Heisey s...@elyograg.org wrote: On 11/21/2012 12:36 AM, stockii wrote: okay. i will try out more RAM. i am using not much caching because of near-realt-time-search. in this case its better to increase xmn or only xmx and xms?

Out Of Memory =( Too many cores on one server?
Hello. if my server is running for a while i get some OOM Problems. I think the problem is, that i running to many cores on one Server with too many documents. this is my server concept: 14 cores. 1 with 30 million docs 1 with 22 million docs 1 with growing 25 million docs 1 with 67 million docs and the other cores are under 1 million docs. all these cores are running fine in one jetty and searching is very fast and we are satisfied with this. yesterday we got OOM. Do you think that we should outsource the big cores into another virtual instance of the server? so that the JVM not share the memory and going OOM? starting with: MEMORY_OPTIONS=-Xmx6g -Xms2G -Xmn1G -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Out-Of-Memory-Too-many-cores-on-one-server-tp4020675.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
Re: Out Of Memory =( Too many cores on one server?
I guess you should give JVM more memory. When starting to find a good value for -Xmx I oversized and set it to Xmx20G and Xms20G. Then I monitored the system and saw that JVM is between 5G and 10G (java7 with G1 GC). Now it is finally set to Xmx11G and Xms11G for my system with 1 core and 38 million docs. But JVM memory depends pretty much on number of fields in schema.xml and fieldCache (sortable fields).

Re: Out Of Memory =( Too many cores on one server?
Hi, your JVM need more RAM. My setup works well with 10 Cores, and 300mio. docs, Xmx8GB Xms8GB, 16GB for OS. But it's how Bernd mentioned, the memory consumption depends on the number of fields and the fieldCache.
