Lucene and Solr's CheckIndex to the Rescue! Segment Merging, Deleted Documents and Why Optimize May Be Bad For You. Solr merge policy and deleted docs During indexing, whenever a document is deleted or updated, it’s not really removed from the index immediately, it’s just “marked as deleted” in its original segment.

Segment Merging, Deleted Documents and Why Optimize May Be Bad For You

It doesn’t show in search results (or the new version is found in the case of update). This leads to some percentage of “waste”; your index may consist of, say, 15%-20% deleted documents. In some situations, the amount of wasted space is closer to 50%. And there are certain situations where the percentage deleted documents can be even higher, as determined by the ratio of numDocs to maxDocs in Solr’s admin UI. Having half or more of your index “wasted” isn’t ideal, this article explains how these conditions arise and what to do about it (spoiler: not a lot). NOTE: We talk about “deleted” documents. Good news, bad news The good news is it’s easy to avoid having more than 50% of your index consist of deleted documents; do not optimize. Lucene segments are “write once”: Merging to the rescue: Visualizing Lucene's segment merges. If you've ever wondered how Lucene picks segments to merge during indexing, it looks something like this: That video displays segment merges while indexing the entire Wikipedia (English) export (29 GB plain text), played back at ~8X real-time.

Visualizing Lucene's segment merges

Each segment is a bar, whose height is the size (in MB) of the segment (log-scale). Segments on the left are largest; as new segments are flushed, they appear on the right. Segments being merged are colored the same color and, once the merge finishes, are removed and replaced with the new (larger) segment. You can see the nice logarithmic staircase pattern that merging creates. By default, using ConcurrentMergeScheduler, Lucene executes each merge in a separate thread, allowing multiple merges to run at once without blocking ongoing indexing.

One simple metric you can use to measure overall merge cost is to divide the total number of bytes read/written for all merging by the final byte size of an index; smaller values are better. Pixabay API Documentation. Welcome to the Pixabay API documentation.
