Have you looked at how long your warm up is taking? If it's taking longer to warm up a searcher then it does for you to do an update, you will be behind the curve and eventually run into this no matter how big that number.

I've done some googling but the common explanation of it being related to autocommit doesn't apply. Our server is not even in public use yet, it's serving maybe one query every second, or less. I don't understand what could be causing this. We do a commit on every update, but updates are very infrequent. One every few minutes, and it's a very small update as well. -jsd-
