Hi Erick, I'm 99% sure that I haven't changed the field types between the two snapshots as all of my test runs are completely scripted and build a new Solr server from scratch (both the virtual machine and the Solr software). I can diff the scripts between two runs to make sure I haven't accidentally changed anything, and I have done this.
The only difference is that I added docValues=false to all of the fields that are indexed=false and stored=true in the run that is smaller. I had tested this previously with the data in the order that makes the index larger and it only made a minor difference (see one of my previous posts). Unfortunately, I hadn't added the change to log the file sizes when I did that run, but it definitely didn't fix the problem. I need to try and get my project back on track now, so I will concentrate on the "fix" that I have and perhaps re-run some other scenarios when I have more time. Thanks again for your help.
