Hi, I have requirement of updating search index and it results in creation of lots of index files as well as size is also getting increased. I create index writer with autocommit true and create false
directory = FSDirectory.getDirectory(indexDir); docWriter = new IndexWriter(directory, true, analyzer, false); The index gets updated in specified period of time. At the end of update, I use following methods to refresh it IndexReader newReader = reader.reopen(); //Old reader is updated reader = newReader; However above steps resulted in creating lots of files. segments.gen segments_c5 _4t.cfs _5i.cfs _5v.cfs _5w.cfs And also lots of duplicate entries keep of increasing. In order to avoid duplicate, I have developed a customized method to remove duplicates in index. However still number and size of index gets increased, though actual update is very few. Appreciate your help on this. regards, RB __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
