Hi Shawn - You brought up a good point. This might be a possible reason. I'll test it out. Thanks! My index (4.5g) usually takes about 15-20 secs to load.
One other observation - even though it says write.lock file in a specific data directory path, when I look up the directory, I don't see any write.lock file in there. It is really confusing.
