Re: What are the scenarios when a new Searcher is created ?

2008-11-30 Thread Aleksander M. Stensby
When adding documents to solr, the searcher will not be replaced, but once you do a commit, (dependening on settings) a new searcher will be opened and warmed up while the old searcher will still be open and used when searching. Once the new searcher has finished its warmup procedure, the o

Hi Fergie, Haven't forgotten about you, but I've been traveling and then into some US Holidays here. To confirm I am understanding, you are seeing a slowdown between 1.3- dev from April and one from September, right? Can you produce an MD5 hash of the WAR file or something, such that I c

Hi, I have huge index files to query. On a first cut calculation it looks like I would need around 3 boxes (each box not more than 125 M records of size 12.5GB) for around 25 apps - so all together 75 boxes. However the number of concurrent users would be lesser - may not be more than 20 at

OK, the development version of Solr should now be fixed (i.e. NIO should be the default for non-Windows platforms). The next nightly build (Dec-01-2008) should have the changes. -Yonik On Wed, Nov 12, 2008 at 2:59 PM, Yonik Seeley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > NIO support in the latest Solr devel

Hi Grant, Thanks for your feedback. The major short-term downside to switching to dismax with multiple fields would be the required re-writing of our current PHP code - especially our code to handle addition of facets fields to the q parameter. From reading about dismax, seems we would need to

Hi Peter, What are the downsides to your last alternative approach below? That seems like the simplest approach and should work as long as the terms within those fields do not need to be boosted separately. If you want to go the boosting terms route, this is handled via a thing called Pa
