Hi all, I've been searching through the list archives for this info but haven't found exactly what I'm looking for... Hoping that someone might have the answer to this off the top of their head.
Is the amount of memory taken up by an IndexSearcher object proportional to the size of the index? I've read various emails that say the number of IndexSearcher objects open should be minimized but I've also read some emails that seem to imply that the objects take up more memory if the index is larger, so I'm a bit confused. Specifically, I have an index that is being constantly being updated, which would require me to close and open a new IndexSearcher very often. Would it be better to split that up into maybe 3 indexes, only adding new content to one of them and then have two IndexSearcher objects that stay open on the "older" content? If the memory consumption by an IndexSearcher object is proportional to the size of the index, is there any downside to splitting up a single large index into up to 30 different indexes? I would really appreciate your help. Thanks!
