And I would like to know which kind of XPATH queries you are talking about (an example of a slow one). Please also provide us with which JR version you are working, and how long does retrievel BLOB object of each of content node take. Can you also please mail the workspace.xml to see your settings. Some queries take longer to execute than others (queries using ChildAxis or DescendantSelfAxis might be slower...though, currently we are fixing the cache for these, see JCR-1213), some speed depends on your workspace config (like respect document order, see JIRA JCR-1237), and settings like mergeFactor etc etc. Also recently background merging of lucene indexes is added to the trunk which does not block user threads (JCR-1238). So, if you can provide us with some quantitative number, we can help you better. By the way, also interesting info is how many nodes are added per sec during searches. About 'speed up removal of entire domain object node with all of it's children' somebody else might help you, because I do not (yet) know enough about this part. I am not sure what happens when you remove an entire domain. Regards Ard > > -Brian >
