: I chugg away at 1.5 million records in a single file, but solr never : commits. specifically, it ignores my <autocommit> settings. (I can : commit separately at the end, of course :)
the way the autocommit settings work is soemthing i always get confused by -- the autocommit logic may not kick in untill the <add> is finished, regardless of how many docs are in it -- but i'm not certain 9and if i'm correct, i'm not sure if that's a bug or a feature) this may be a motivating reason to use DIH in your use case even though you've already got it in the XmlUpdateRequestHandler format. : but I might be misunderstanding autocommit. I have it set as the : default solrconfig.xml does, in the updateHandler section (mapped to : UpdateHandler2) but /update is mapped to XmlUpdateRequestHandler. : should I be shuffling some things around? due to some unfortunately naming decisions several years ago an "update Handler" and a "Request handler" that does updates aren't the same thing ... <updateHandler> (which whould always be DirectUpdateHandler2) is the low level internal code that is responsible for actually making the index modiciations -- XmlUpdateRequestHandler (or DataImportHandler) parses the raw input and hands off to DirectUpdateHandler2 to make the changes. -Hoss
