"auto", the safe choice, will enable mmapping on a 64bit JVM. Other values are "mmap", "mmap_index_only" (which may allow you to get part of the benefits of mmap on a 32bit machine by mmapping only index files) and "standard".

Increase this to the size of the column slices you typically perform. (Name-based queries are performed with a buffer size of !ColumnIndexSizeInKB.) {{{
