Hi,
I'm using Lucene 2.9.2. Currently, when creating my index, I'm calling
indexWriter.addDocument(doc) for each Document I want to index. The
Documents aren't large and I'm averaging indexing about 500 documents
every 90 seconds. I'd like to try and speed this up....unless 90
seconds for 500 Documents is reasonable. I have the merge factor set to
1000. Do you have any suggestions for batch indexing? Is there
something like indexWriter.addDocuments(Document[] docs) in the API?
Thanks.
Paul
You should lower that merge factor - thats *really* high.
You shouldn't really need much more than 50 or so ... and for search
speed your going to want fewer segments anyway -
if your just going to end up optimizing at the end, there is no reason
for such a large merge factor - you will pay for most of what
you saved when you optimize.
That is very slow by the way. Should be much faster - especially if you
are using multiple threads.
