this is related to my previous post where I did not get any feedback yet...
I am going through a practice to reduce the disk usage by solr index files. first step I took was to move some fields from stored to not stored. this reduced the size of .fdt by 30-60%. very promising... however I notice the .frq are taking almost as much disk space as the .fdt files. It seems .frq keeps the term frequency information. In our application, we only care about exact search (legal purpose), we do not care about search results in relevance (by score) at all. does this mean I can omit the freq? is it feasible in solr to turn the frequency off? I do need phrase search so I will have to keep the .prx which is also the huge files similar to .fdt files. Any suggestions or inputs? thanks Jie -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/if-I-only-need-exact-search-does-frequency-score-matter-tp4026893.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
