How many documents are in the index?
If you haven't already done this I'd take a really close look at your
schema and make sure you're only storing the things that should really
be stored, same with the indexed fields. I drastically reduced my
index size just by changing some indexed/stored option
You might want to look at acts_as_searchable for Ruby:

That's a similar plugin for the Hyperestraier search engine using its
REST interface.

That's correct, just the search function, though I'm looking into

Are you using Solr for all data storage and search? Or a RDBMS? If so,
what is the split?

if i may ask: did you customize the Solr code at all (ie: are you using

this was all just config file changes though right, you didn't need to

That's right. It was all config changes and no new java code, which is
a plus since I've never coded in java :)

Is it possible that the facets can be based on the contents of an
entire field instead of the terms?
For example say I have a document with this field:
Hip Hop
A facet query on the genre field returns:
1
1
but I'd like it to return:
1

I'm running the latest nightly build (2006-09-27) and cannot seem to
get the q.op parameter working. I have the default operator set to AND
and am testing with a two word query that returns no results. If I add
"OR" to the query I get results. But if I remove the OR and add

I recommend you try this same scenario out with the tutorial example

No, after you add new documents you simply issue a command
and the new docs are searchable.
On Discogs.com we have just over 1 million docs in the index and do
about 20,000 updates per day. Every 15 minutes we read a queue and add
new documents, then commit. And we optimize once per day. I've ha

Are there any tips on reducing the index size or what factors most

My index has 2.7 million documents and is 200 gigabytes and growing.
Most documents are around 2-3kb and there are about 30 indexed fields.

Are you storing the complete html? If so I think you should strip out
the html then index the document.

I've found an odd situation where solr is not returning all of the

Here is an example query for that phrase and the result set:
