Otis, As of now I have disabled caches. And we are hardly running any queries at this point. I filter mostly on string fields and two int fields, 2 dates (one is a dynamic date field) and one dynamic string field. Same goes for faceting also, except I do not use facets on the dynamic field.
In terms of documents , my index is around 5.5 million. I am not trying to rule out the possibility of queries causing this, but I think its highly unlikely. The cluster is being used only by a select few and I have noticed this behaviour generally during indexing (which happens mostly during the night). The Autocommit with 0 values seems to be working. I am constantly monitoring the logs and I can see commits happening only every 30 and 60 min intervals. These commits are run by a cron job. Shawn, Your assumption is right! Thanks for the tips on Solconfig changes. They have been working good most of the times. I am assuming these issues come up after a couple of million of documents are indexed. During the initial indexing (upto 3-4 million docs) everything seems to be fine. I am going to try the recent nightly build apache-solr-4.1-2012-12-28_12-29-23 now. Lets hope using 4.1 fixes these issues. I have already started indexing my documents on a 3.6.2 Solr box as a backup. I am also going to reduce the JVM heap size and experiment between 8 - 10 GB, since i think some of the ZK connection issues were happening due to longer GC pauses. Thanks Jack for verifying it in the code. --Shreejay -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Frequent-OOM-Unknown-source-in-logs-tp4029361p4029657.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
