Hi, ----- Original Message ---- From: Stadler Hans-Christian <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
If mergeFactor is set to 2 and no optimize() is ever done on the index, what is the impact on 1) the number opened files during indexing OG: it will grow a little, but frequently go down as Lucene merges segments automatically during indexing. The pattern is increase slowly-reduce rapidly, increase slowly-reduce rapidly, etc. 2) the number of opened files during searching OG: the trend will follow the trend for the number of files from 1) 2) the search speed OG: fast 3) the indexing speed OG: slower than if you increased the mergeFactor, as with mergeFactor set to only 2, Lucene will merge segments pretty frequently.
