Hi Shalin, I have not faced any memory problems as of now. But I had perviously asked a question regarding caching and memory (http://www.nabble.com/How-to-open-a-new-searcher-and-close-the-old-one-by-sending-HTTP-request-td21496803.html)-
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So can I safely assume that we will not face any memory issue due to caching even if we do not send commit that frequently? (If we wont send commit, then new searcher wont be initialized. So I can assume that the current searcher will correctly manage cache without any memory issues.) Thanks, Manu --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For which I got the following answer - No, You can't assume that. You have to set a good autoCommit value for your solrconfig.xml, so you don't run out of memory for no commiting to Solr often, depending on your enviroment, memory share, doc size and update frequency. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- But my understanding is that <autoCommit> tag works only if there is some update in index. So I wanted to understand that if there are no updates, will caching create some problems with memory?
