One additional bit: The *.fdt files contain the stored values (i.e.
stored=true). This a verbatim, compressed copy of the input for these
fields. This data does not need to reside in any memory. Say you have
rows=10, and numFound is 10,000,000. The stored data is only accessed
for the 10 returned d

Thanks Toke. Your answer did help me a lot.
But one part about your answer is something that has always been confusing

No, there really isn't.
I can list off a bunch of recommendations, but a whole bunch of things
that I don't know about your install could make those recommendations
completely wrong
I am curious about this as well. I generally have been using about a third
of available memory for the java heap, so I keep 50gb/150 available for the
jvm. Think this should be reduced?

Assuming you need low latency and/or high throughput, yes. I mention this
because in many cases the requirements for number of simultaneous users and
response times are known (at least
Hi,
Is there a recommendation on the size of index that one should host per
core?
Idea is to come up with an *initial* shard/replica setting for a load test.
And then arrive at a good cluster size based on that testing.
*Example: *
Num documents: 100 million
Average document size: 1kb
So total
