> You are saying that I should give more memory than 12GB?
Yes. Look at this: > > SEVERE: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space > org.apache.lucene.search.FieldCacheImpl$10.createValue(FieldCacheImpl.java:3 > 61 > > ) It can't find few (!!!) contiguous bytes for .createValue(...) It can't add (Field Value, Document ID) pair to an array. GC tuning won't help in this specific case... May be SOLR/Lucene core developers may WARM FieldCache at IndexReader opening time, in the future... to have early OOM... Avoiding faceting (and sorting) on such field will only postpone OOM to unpredictable date/time... -Fuad http://www.linkedin.com/in/liferay
