Is there a practical reason behind trying to post 1m different files instead of several large files. If this is a unix setup can you try post.sh instead.

Hi, I am using the post.jar tool to post files to solr. I d like to post everything in a folder, e.g., "myfolder". I typed in command: java -jar post.jar c:/myfolder/*.xml. This works perfectly when I test on a sample of 100k xml files. But when I work on the real dataset, there are over 1m files in the folder. And when I typed in the same command and hits enter, the program hangs and there are no response after a long while. Is it because there are too many files? What is the best practice (should I separate the 1million files into 100 subfolders and do the posting from those folders separately?)
