Maximum index size

	Hello,

	I'm indexing 2,5 millions docs.

	I already have added 1,2 millions docs to the index and the indexing  
speed becomes quite slow.

	my index directory is 1GB .

	Is there a limit to the indexing size?

	Is the indexing slow when the number of terms are big?

Integer.MAX_VALUE documents.

Integer.MAX_VALUE unique tokens per field.

Ok, I will follow the documentation.

But appart from optimization tips, are there intrinsic limits in term  
of :

- Index size.
- number of distinct indexed terms.

Have a look at: http://wiki.apache.org/lucene-java/ 
BasicsOfPerformance and the section on indexing.

Please provide more details about what you are doing and your  
hardware, memory, etc. if that doesn't help.
