How many documents are there in the index? How many stored/indexed fields? There is no magic number as yet for defining the size of a single core(whether no. of docs OR the size of index), but 123GB seems to be on a higher side, so, you could definitely go for sharding of indexes.
BTW, how are your searches/indexing performing over the time? Are there any impact? Regards Pravesh -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/optimum-solr-core-size-tp4004251p4004424.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
