Re: [Exist-open] Using Lucene with large sets of documents in a collection

[Dan M. <dan...@gm...>]

Paul,

Thank you very much for taking the time to post this case study.  I wish
more people shared their victories.

I think that there are many, many users that give up on eXist too early
because they do not take the time to understand how to optimize the process
of loading and indexing process.

I feel very sorry for the people who abandon eXist and try to use other
tools like key-value stores only to find there are no way to run reports on
these systems... :-O

We appreciate your patience and your willingness to have faith in eXist and
hope that you contribute to the code base in the future.  The team has been
working hard to create a great product and we feel that eXist is really
getting better each month.

If you have any specific suggestions on what we can do to make this eXist
evaluation and adoption process easier, let us know.  I know that you will
be seeing more documentation in the near future on many aspects of initial
setup.

Good Luck! - Dan
