Hello guys,
This is my first post, so I will take the opportunity to salute
everyone. I started to play more with couchDB on monday.
This is my box:
Summary: Dell 2950, 2 x Xeon L5320 1.86GHz, 4GB / 4GB 667MHz
Disk: sda (megaraid_sas0): 218GB (6%) RAID-1 == 6 x 73GB 15K SAS
Seagate 15K.5
OS: RHEL AS 4 U4, Linux 2.6.9-42.ELsmp i686, 32-bit
As you can see :
{"db_name":"test","doc_count":7647662,"doc_del_count":0,"update_seq":7647662,"purge_seq":0,"compact_running":true,"disk_size":89081462811,"instance_start_time":"1234980644882221"}
I have loaded over 7M documents. The original text file was 19Go, I
splitted in 20000 docs pages and started 4 processes to load everything
in parallel on couchdb.
The whole process took over 16 hours so roughtly 130 doc /s.
Everything went great, I am just really surprise of the result.
From a 19Go text file, my test.couch file reached 83Go! How come? I am
just really surprise of this result.
I am currently compacting it... even if 'Compaction rewrites the
database file, removing outdated document revisions and deleted
documents'... no document should be outdate neither deleted...
83G Feb 20 02:40 test.couch
15G Feb 20 13:52 test.couch.compact
Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance
Pascal
