Lets say I have a large index (100M docs, 1TB, split up between 10 indexes). And a bunch of the "stored" and "indexed" fields are not used in search at all. In order to save memory and disk, I'd like to rebuild that index *without* those fields, but I don't have original documents to rebuild entire index with (don't have the full-text anymore, etc.). Is there some way to rebuild or optimize an existing index with only a sub-set of the existing indexed fields? Or alternatively is there a way to avoid loading some indexed fields at all ( to avoid loading term infos and terms index ) ?
Thanks Bob
