Hello, I'm running a 12M document index which I'd like to frequently update. I'm having problems doing so (http://old.nabble.com/NullPointerException-thrown-during-updates-to-index-td26613309.html) and am wondering now if it has to do with the way I'm structuring the updates. I have a few questions which I'd like some clarification on if anyone out there can offer it:
1) What is the difference between a commit and an add? Is there a good rule of thumb for how many docs one can add in one batch, and how many uncommitted docs are too many? 2) At what stage during updates do the solr caches get cleared out? My searches are facet heavy and require heavy usage of the solr caches to run quickly - I'd like to minimize the frequency at which the caches are cleared out. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Commits-vs.-Adds-and-solr-caches-tp26819539p26819539.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
