Hi, thanks for the reply. Yes, after the first slow search, subsequent searches have good performance.
I guess the issue is why exactally, is createValue taking so long, or should it take so long (4 ~ 5 minutes ). Given roughly 27million terms, each of roughly 8 characters long and few other bytes for the TermInfo record, a modern disk can easily read over the portion of the index (the .frq portion ) in a few seconds. Also, when I use tools like dstat, I see bunch of 1kb reads initiated while running createValue. > Date: Tue, 20 May 2008 11:02:38 +0530 > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To: java-user@lucene.apache.org > Subject: Re: slow FieldCacheImpl.createValue > > Hey Alex, > I guess you haven't tried warming up the engine before putting it to use. > Though one of the simpler implementation, you could try warming up the > engine first by sending a few searches and then put it to use (put it into > the serving machine loop).
