I sent out an email about this a while back, but basically this limit appears only on Tomcat and only when Solr attempts to write to the response.
You can work around it by splitting up your posts so that you're posting less than 5000 (or whatever your limit seems to be) at a time. You DO NOT have to commit after each post. I recently indexed a 38 million document data base with this problem and although it took about 8-9 hours it did work... I only commited every 100,000 or so. -Sangraal On 9/6/06, Michael Imbeault <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
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. 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 got an idea on this one? It would be helpful. I may try to switch to jetty tomorrow if nothing works :( -- Michael Imbeault CHUL Research Center (CHUQ) 2705 boul.
