Re: improving search response time

2010-12-21 Thread Anurag

Thanks  a lot!
you mean i have to increase the resources.
1.Can the distributed search improve the speed.?
2.I have read from some thread that spellchecker takes time.Is spellchecker
is one of the curlprit for  more response time?

Install more memory.  8GB would be a good place to be, more would let 
you fit your entire index into RAM for incredible speed.  Once you get 
above 4GB RAM, it's best if you run a 64-bit OS and Java, which requires 
64-bit processors.  If your index is growing, you might want to have

Re: improving search response time

It is crucial to MEASURE your system to confirm your bottleneck.
I agree that you are very likely to be disk I/O bound with such little
memory left for the OS, a large index and many terms in each query.

Have your IT guys do some monitoring on your disks and log this while
under load. Then you should easily be able to see whether disk I/O
is peaking while CPU is health.

You should also look into whether you can shorten down your query size:

+((tags:case^1.2 | authors:case^7.5 | title:case^65.5 | matchAll:case |
keywords:case^2.5 | meshterm:case^3.2 | abstract1:case^9.5)~0.01
(tags:studi^1.2 | authors:study^7.5 | title:study^65.5 | matchAll:study |
keywords:studi^2.5 | meshterm:studi^3.2 | abstract1:studi^9.5)~0.01
(tags:research^1.2 | authors:research^7.5 | title:research^65.5 |
matchAll:research | keywords:research^2.5 | meshterm:research^3.2 |
abstract1:research^9.5)~0.01) (tags:"case studi research"~50^1.2 |
authors:"case study research"~50^7.5 | title:"case study research"~50^65.5 |
matchAll:case study research | keywords:"case studi research"~50^2.5 |
meshterm:"case studi research"~50^3.2 | abstract1:"case studi
research"~50^9.5)~0.01 (sum(sdouble(yearScore)))^1.1
(sum(sdouble(readerScore)))^2.0

Do you need "pf" at all? Can you smash together similarly weighted fields
with copyfield into a new one, reducing the number of fiels to lookup
from 7 to perhaps 5?

Thanks for your input guys. I will surely try these suggestions, in
particular, reducing heap size JAVA_OPTION and adjusting cache sizes to see
if that makes a difference. 

I am also considering upgrading RAM for slave nodes, and also looking into
moving from SATA enterprise HDD to SSD flash/DRAM storage... Is anyone using
SSDs for solr application?

What would be a better route to take? more memory or flash based SSD hard
drive?

Re: improving search response time

2010-08-18 Thread Lance Norskog
More on this: you should give Solr enough memory to run comfortably,
then stop. Leave as much as you can for the OS to manage its disk
cache. The OS is better at this than Solr is. Also, it does not have
to do garbage collection.

Filter queries are a big help. You should create a set of your basic
filter queries, then compose them as needed. Filters AND together.
Lucene applies them very early in the search process, and they are
effective at cutting the amount of relevance/ranking calculation.

If you want to be really adventurous, there is a crazy new operating
system hack called 'giant pages'. You'll need IT experience to try
this. You'll have to do your own research, sorry.

Re: improving search response time

2010-08-18 Thread Shawn Heisey
 Most of your time is spent doing the query itself, which in the light 
of other information provided, does not surprise me.  With 12GB of RAM 
and 9GB dedicated to the java heap, the available RAM for disk caching 
is pretty low, especially if Solr is actually using all 9GB.


Since your index is 60GB, the system is most likely I/O bound.  
Available memory for disk cache is the best way to make Solr fast.  If 
you increased to 16GB RAM, you'd probably see some performance 
increase.  Going to 32GB would be better, and 64GB would let your system 
load nearly the entire index into the disk cache.


Is matchAll possibly an aggregated field with information copied from 
the other fields that you are searching?  If so, especially since you 
are using dismax, you'd want to strongly consider dropping it entirely, 
which would make your index a lot smaller.  Check your schema for 
information that could be trimmed.  You might not need "stored" on some 
fields, especially if the original values are available from another 
source (like a database, or a central filesystem).  You may not need 
advanced features on everything, like termvectors, termpositions, etc.


If you can't make significant chances in server memory or index size, 
you might want to consider going distributed.  You'd need more servers.  
A few things (More Like This being the one that comes to mind) do not 
work in a distributed index.


Can you reduce the java heap size and still have Solr work correctly?  
You probably do not need your internal Solr caches to be so huge, and 
dropping them would greatly reduce your heap needs.  Here's my cache 
settings, with the numbers being size, initialsize, then autowarm count.


filterCache: 256, 256, 0
queryResultCache: 1024, 512, 128
documentCache: 16384, 4096, n/a

I'm using distributed search with six large shards that each take up 
nearly 13GB.  The machines (VMs) have 9GB of RAM and the java heap size 
is 1280MB.  I'm not using a lot of the advanced features like 
highlighting, so I'm not using termvectors.  Right now, we use facets 
for data mining, but not in production.  My average query time is about 
100 milliseconds, with each shard's average about half that.  
Autowarming usually takes about 10-20 seconds, though sometimes it 
balloons to about 45 seconds.  I started out with much larger cache 
numbers, but that just made my autowarm times huge.


Based on my experience, I imagine that your system takes several minutes 
to autowarm your caches when you do a commit or optimize.  If you are 
doing frequent updates, that would be a major drag on performance.


Two of your caches have a larger initialsize than size, with the former 
meaning the number of slots allocated immediately and the latter 
referring to the maximum size of the cache.  Apparently it's not leading 
to any disastrous problems, but you'll want to adjust accordingly.

It would probably help if you could post some benchmarks of what
your current search response times are (from the Solr back-end,
and not from any front-end in front of it), and what your desired
response times are. You could use Apache bench, and or JMeter for
this.

As a data point, while our index size/no. of documents is smaller
(~40GB/3.6 million documents), we are seeing a mean response
time/request of ~120ms for numeric fields, at 50 simulated
simultaneous connections, with a single Solr server having 8 ~2GHz
cores, and 12GB RAM. This measure however, *is* influenced by the
effects of Solr caching. Solr is close to a factor of 10 faster
than our front-end, even though that is pulling almost everything
from Solr. So, we are happy on that front :-)

Gora

Have you benchmarked to see what the bottleneck is, i.e. what is taking the 
most time? Try to add &debugQuery=true and share the  section with us. 
It includes timings for each component.

High latency could be caused by a number of different factors, and it is 
important to first isolate the bottleneck.
