Hi Mike,Documents are web pages, about 20 fields, mostly strings, a couple
of integers, booleans and one html field (for document body content).
I do have a multi-threaded client pushing docs to Solr, so yes, I suppose
that would mean I have several active Solr worker threads.
The only exceptions I have are the RuntimeException flush errors, followed
by a handful (normally 10-20) of LockObtainFailedExceptions, which i
presumed were being caused by the faulty threads dying and failing to
release locks.
Oh wait, I am getting WstxUnexpectedCharException exceptions every now and
then:
SEVERE: com.ctc.wstx.exc.WstxUnexpectedCharException: Illegal character
((CTRL-CHAR, code 8))
at [row,col {unknown-source}]: [1,26070]

org.apache.solr.handler.XmlUpdateRequestHandler.readDoc(XmlUpdateRequestHandler.java:327)
I presumed these were caused by character encoding issues, but haven't
looked into them at all yet.
Thanks again for your help! I'll make some time this afternoon to build some
patched Lucene jars and get the results
