Hi Otis, How did you manage that? I've 8 core machine with 8GB of ram and 11GB index for 14M docs and 50000 update every 30mn but my replication kill everything. My segments are merged too often sor full index replicate and cache lost and .... I've no idea what can I do now? Some help would be brilliant, btw im using Solr 1.4.
