I could, but it probably would not be useful for your documents or your
queries.

We have 22 million homework problems. Our queries are often hundreds of
words long,
because students copy and paste entire problems. After pre-processing, the
average query
is still 25 words.

For load benchmarking, I use access logs from production. I typically
gather over a half-million
lines of log. Using production logs means that queries have the same
statistical distribution
as prod, so the cache hit rates are reasonable.

Before each benchmark, I restart all the Solr instances to clear the
caches. Then the first part
of the query log is used to warm the caches, typically about 4000 queries.

After that, the measured benchmark run starts. This uses JMeter with
100-500 threads. Each
thread is configured with a constant throughput timer so a constant load is
offered. Test run
one or two hours. Recently, I ran a test with a rate of 1000
requests/minute for one hour.

During the benchmark, I monitor the CPU usage. Our systems are configured
with enough RAM
so that disk is not accessed for search indexes. If the CPU goes over
75-80%, there is congestion
and queries will slow down. Also, if the run queue (load average) increases
over the number of
CPUs, there will be congestion.

After the benchmark run, the JMeter log is analyzed to report response time
percentiles for
each Solr request handler.


Sorry for being rude. But the ' results ' please, not the ' road to the
results '
