Hi, I'm running an index/view re-generation with 10M documents, 10views, having 1 node and 8 shards on it. It seems it will take more than 1 day. What are limiting factors for that? Looking at perfromance monitoring tools (Task Manager and Process Explorer), it seems neither I/O or CPU is saturated: CPU (8 cores) each core taking <30% its capacity I/O reads ~ 8MB/s I/O writes ~ 1.5MB/s
Windows 7 64bit 16GB memory Intel i7-4800 @ 2.7GHz HDD Seagate ST500LM0 Any explanation why the system limits are not being saturated? Seems to me the bottleneck is I/O, but the disk is capable of 100MB/s throughput in sequential reads/writes. If the limiting factor is indeed I/O, I assume changing number of shards would not gain much, possibly even 1 shard would provide a similar speed. Any way to improve the speed of index rebuild? Thanks, Daniel
