RE: Quering the database

2010-08-02 Thread Fornoville, Tom
This question has come up several times over the past weeks. The cause is probably all your fields being of type "string". This is only good for exact matches like id's etc. Try using "text" or another type that tokenizes. -Original Message- From: Hando420 [mailto:hando...@gmail.com] Sen

RE: How to speed up solr search speed

2010-07-15 Thread Fornoville, Tom
Is there any reason why you have to limit each instance to only 1M documents? If you could put more documents in the same core I think it would dramatically improve your response times. -Original Message- From: marship [mailto:mars...@126.com] Sent: donderdag 15 juli 2010 6:23 To: solr-us

RE: Solr index optimizing help

2010-07-13 Thread Fornoville, Tom
It will mostly likely be smaller but the new size is highly dependent on the number of documents that you have deleted (because optimize actually removes data instead of only flagging it). -Original Message- From: Karthik K [mailto:karthikkato...@gmail.com] Sent: dinsdag 13 juli 2010 11:3

RE: CommonsHttpSolrServer add document hangs

2010-07-13 Thread Fornoville, Tom
If you're only adding documents you can also have a go with StreamingUpdateSolrServer instead of the CommonsHttpSolrServer. Couple that with the suggestion of master/slave so the searches don't interfere with the indexing and you should have a pretty responsive system. -Original Message- F

Have you already looked at Hibernate Search? It combines Hibernate ORM with indexing/searching functionality of Lucene. The latest version even comes with the Solr analyzers. http://www.hibernate.org/subprojects/search.html Regards, Tom -Original Message- From: fachhoch [mailto:fachh...@

Hi Lukas, Have you tried setting the debug mode (debugQuery=on)? It provides very detailed info about the scoring, it might even be too much for a regular user but for us it was very helpful at times. Regards, Tom -Original Message- From: Lukas Kahwe Smith [mailto:m...@pooteeweet.org] S

Hello Hoss, So far we have been using the default SearchHandler. I also looked into a solution proposed on this mailing list by Geert-Jan Brits using extra sort fields and functions to pick out the maximum. This however proved rather cumbersome to integrate in our SolrJ client and I also have som

Hello everyone, I'm new to Solr but have been asked to do an evaluation as an alternative for a commercial search engine. I have some experience with Lucene and a java background so I'm not afraid to dive into code :-) The application now has a very particular way of sorting results using

Hi all, I've had some mailserver problems and it seems this mail didn't reach the mailing list. If it did my apologies for the double post. The last couple of days we are thinking of using Solr as our search engine of choice. Most of the features we need are out of the box or can be easily confi
