I need help Caution! Attachments and links (urls) can contain deceptive and/or malicious content. Hi Jim, Welcome to the Solr user list, not sure why your are asking about list liveliness? I don't see prior messages from you? https://lists.apache.org/list?users@solr.apache.org:lte=1M:jim Probably the most important thing you haven't told us is the current size of your indexes. You said 20k/day input, but at the start do you have 0days, 1 day, 10 days, 100 days, 1000 days, or 10000 days (27y) on disk already? If you are starting from zero, then there is likely a 20x or more growth in the size of the index between the first and second measurement.. indexes do get slower with size though you would need fantastically large documents or some sort of disk problem to explain it that way. However, maybe you do have huge documents or disk issues since your query time at time1 is already abysmal? Either you are creating a fantastically expensive query, or your system is badly overloaded. New systems, properly sized with moderate sized documents ought to be serving simple queries in tens of milliseconds. As others have said it is *critical you show us the entire query request*. If you are doing something like attempting to return the entire index with rows=999999, that would almost certainly explain your issues... How large are your average documents (in terms of bytes)? Also what version of Solr? r5.xlarge only has 4 cpu and 32 GB of memory. That's not very large (despite the name). However since it's unclear what your total index size looks like, it might be OK. What are your IOPS constraints with EFS? Are you running out of a quota there? (bursting mode?) Note that EFS is encrypted file system, and stunnel is encrypted transport, so for each disk read you likely causing: - read raw encrypted data from disk to memory (at AWS) - decrypt the disk data in memory (at AWS) - encrypt the memory data for stunnel transport (at AWS) - send the data over the wire - decrypt the data for use by solr. (Hardware you specify) That's guaranteed to be slow, and worse yet, you have no control at all over the size or loading of the hardware performing anything but the last step. You are completely at the mercy of AWS's cost/speed tradeoffs which are unlikely to be targeting the level of performance usually desired for search disk IO. I'll also echo others and say that it's a bad idea to allow solr instances to compete for disk IO in any way. I've seen people succeed with setups that use invisibly provisioned disks, but one typically has to run more hardware to compensate. Having a shared disk creates competition, and it also creates a single point of failure partially invalidating the notion of running 3 servers in cloud mode for high availability. If you can't have more than one disk, then you might as well run a single node, especially at small data sizes like 20k/day. A single node on well chosen hardware can usually serve tens of millions of normal sized documents, which would be several years of data for you. (assuming low query rates, handling high rates of course starts to require hardware) Finally, you will want to get away from using single queries as a measurement of latency. If you care about response time I HIGHLY suggest you watch this YouTube video on how NOT to measure latency: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJ8ydIuPFeU On Fri, Feb 23, 2024 at 6:44 PM Jan Høydahl <jan....@cominvent.com<mailto:jan....@cominvent.com>> wrote: > I think EFS is a terribly slow file system to use for Solr, who > recommended it? :) Better use one EBS per node. > Not sure if the gradually slower performance is due to EFS though.
