Hi, I understand optimizing could take longer when index is bigger, so it might take a while when index is huge.
I think I remember seeing something in the lucene list about optimizing but not to the optimum case, only to a less than optimum state, but using less time, is that correct? Does somebdoy now if this could be bound by a time given for the optimization? I mean something like thatt: indexWriter.optimize(300); 300 being seconds for instance, and meaning, optimize during 300 seconds, and stop at that time if still not finished totally optimizing. That way you could be sure and optimize call I make wont take extemelly long. thanks javi --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
