: Old issue (see : http://www.mail-archive.com/solr-user@lucene.apache.org/msg00651.html), : but I'm experiencing the same exact thing on windows xp, latest tomcat.
did you notice the followup thread from sangraal where he mentioned that he'd narrowed the problem down to both using Tomcat and submitting docs containing CDATA? ... http://www.nabble.com/Add-doc-limit---Follow-Up-tf2186440.html#a6048436 : I noticed that the tomcat process gobbles memory (10 megs a second : maybe) and then jams at 125 megs. Can't find a fix yet. I'm using a php : interface and curl to post my xml, one document at a time, and commit : every 100 document. Indexing 30000 docs, it hangs at maybe 5000. Anyone interesting ... you may not be hitting the same problem, Sangraal specificly said he only encountered this bug when submitting a large number of docs in a single request -- when you say it jams at 125 what do you mean? ... are you sure you aren't just getting an OutOfMemory error? -Hoss
