Hi, I am in the process of deciding specs for a crawling machine and a searching machine (two machines), which will support merging/indexing and searching operations on a single Lucene index that may scale to about several million pages (at which it would be about 2-10 GB, assuming linear growth with pages).
What is the range of hardware that I should be looking at? Could anyone share their deployment/hardware specs for a large index size? I'm looking for RAM and CPU considerations. Also what is the preferred platform - Java has a max memory allocation of 4GB on Solaris and 2GB on linux? -> Does it make sense to get more RAM than this? Thanks!
