Somebody recently asked me for advice on the use of Solr (DSE Search) and vnodes, so I was wondering... is anybody here actually using Solr/DSE Search with vnodes enabled? If so, with what token count? The default of 256 would result in somewhat suboptimal query performance, so the question is whether 64 or even 32 would deliver acceptable query performance? Anybody here have any practical experience on this issue, either testing or even better, in production?
Absent any further input, my advice would be to limit DSE Search/Solr to a token count of 64 per node. -- Jack Krupansky
