Are there any plans on implementing a MultiSearcher into solr? I have been following the list for a while, and read quite a few topic on multiple instances of solr, in order to accomodate multiple schemas as well as break down index sizes for performance reasons. I have a use case that sits right

Ah, so I'm beginning to get it. If we build Solr with JMX support, the admin HTTP/XML(err, Ruby) interface could be written into the JMX HTTP adapter as a separate web application, and allowing users to plug it in or not. If I'm understanding that correctly then I'm quite +1 on JMX! And

Yes, you'll need a 64-bit machine in order to use over 2GB of JVM heap. You can set the maximum with -Xmx16g for example. Try that on a 32-bit machines, and you'll immediately get an error from JVM telling you to go get yourself a 64-bit box. Otis - Original Message From: Kevin Lewa
