I'm building a high load system that will require several search slaves (at least 2, but this may grow to 5-10+ in the near future). I plan to have a single indexer that replicates to the search slaves. I want indexing to be as fast as possible, so I've considered adding another machine between my indexer and the search slaves (slave master) to reduce the amount of work the indexer has to do (file IO, network traffic to/from slaves). I will have frequent updates to my index (every 15 minutes), but they will be small, and the index will be optimized nightly. The size of the optimized index is about 5GB. Has anyone considered or implemented a solution like this? Did you see significant performance improvement on the indexer by doing it?
