OK I have a 30 gb index where there are lots of sparsly populated int fields and then one title field and one catchall field with title and everything else we want as keywords, the catchall field. I figure it is the biggest field in our documents which as I mentioned is otherwise composed of a variety if int fields and a title.
So my puzzlement is that my biggest field is copied into a double metaphone field and now I added another copyfield to also copy the catchall field into a newly created soundex field for an experiment to compare the effectiveness of the two. I expected the index to grow by at least 25% to 30%, but it barely grew at all. Can someone explain this to me? Thanks! J
