Hi, I'm in the process of evaluating solr and sphinx, and have come to realize that actually having a large data set to run them against would be handy. However, I'm pretty new to both systems, so thought that perhaps asking around my produce something useful.
What *I* mean by largish is something that won't fit into memory - say 5 or 6 gigs, which is probably puny for some and huge for others. BTW, I would also welcome any input from others who have done the above comparison, although what we'll be using it for is specific enough that of course I'll need to do my own testing.
