We have two instances of a search system containing 40 million documents - identical jvm versions, lucene jars, and our code. One is running on local disks. The other is on a SAN. The instance on local disks consistently far outperforms the SAN instance. And I'd second Uwe's sentiments. An in

It depends what to do with them The JAR file are the artifact and you should place them, where you need them (e.g. into the lib folder of you application you program around Lucene). There is no install procedure, because Lucene is a library and not a program. - Uwe Schindler H.-H.-Meier-Allee

Hi, I am wondering how I should install the .jar files. I don't find an install script. Shall I manually copy them to some directory? Which directory should they be copied to? Also, I have to go to each subdir in contrib to compile the .jar file (for f in compgen -d; do cd $d; ant; cd -; done)

Is there a default library fold? For example, GCC libraries by default go to /lib, although I can put them anywhere I want if it is really necessary. Did you mean that there is not a default location to install the lucene library? On Sat, Sep 26, 2009 at 7:19 AM, Uwe Schindler wrote: > It depend

If it's only 200,000 documents, I think the index will not be very big (a few Gigabytes), especially, if the documents indexed are 150 kiB raw size documents like PDFs or DOCs that have much binary overhead not indexed. Most times the number of distinct terms is low. Index size is most times a lot
