I'm not sure if that is because currently my machine is a normal PC and not a server, but my CPU specification for each of the core is Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4910MQ CPU @ 2.90GHz.
It should probably be better when the real server which has a much better specification comes, and I should be able to do the indexing in a lesser time using the knowledge that I've learnt here.
