It says on the Xindice website that the db
is designed for many, small documents. The XML dataset that we will be
handling will contain fairly small documents but VERY many of them; up
to 400 million instances of the most populous record class.
My question is therefore this: has anyone used/tested Xindice with
datasets of this size (hundreds of millions) with decent performance as
well? This will be mainly import + query work, hardly any heavy updating
load, if that would make a difference as far as performance goes.
One question that may help answer this: would 400 million records
be in *one* Xindice Collection, or could these be organized according
to some hierarchy, such that there would be a smaller limit at the
Collection level?
