Thanks to all who replied. It's encouraging :) The numbers vary quite a bit though, from 13 docs/s (Burkamp) to 250 docs/s (Walter) to 1000 docs/s I understand the results also depend on the doc size and hardware.
I have a question for Erik: you mentioned "single threaded indexer" (below). I'm not familiar with solr at all and did a search on solr wiki for "thread" and didn't find anything. Is it so that I can actually configure solr to be single-threaded and multi-threaded? And I'm not sure what you meant by parallelizing the indexer? Running multiple instances of the indexer, or multiple instances of solr? Thanks, Jack > My largest Solr index is currently at 1.4M and it takes a max of 3ms > to add a document (according to Solr's console), most of them 1ms. > My single threaded indexer is indexing around 1000 documents per > minute, but I think I can get this number even faster by > parallelizing the indexer. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
