Hi Antonio,

missed out your comment. I didn't verify this (yet). Going to check it out later this week.

Hello Bas,

Disappointed to read this as well. Do you know if the functionality to index the geo-location column has in fact been implemented in the RTM version of SP2013? Have not had a chance to try this bit in SP2013 yet.

Thanks,

Antonio

The grid provides broad capabilities of working with data such as arbitrary class objects, row arrays, objects implementing IList or IDictionary interfaces and objects with variable number of fields.more information visit dapfor. com

Hi Bas,

I was also disappointed that the geolocation fieltd type is not recognized by the index process. Let's hope it will be possible in the RTM version! I'm curious about your workaround. Calculated column doesn't work ;-)

Do you think the new feature of Content Enrichment web service callout is thé way to geoprocess and enrich your data before indexing?

We use Esri's ArcGIS and they offer nice features for SP2010: auto workflow to geoprocess addresses (see: help.arcgis.com/.../015900000027000000.htm).

Was this the source of inspiration for MS? (de krenten uit de pap)

re: Fast Search for SharePoint: crawler process blocked due to memory capacity limit

Bas — Thu, 23 Aug 2012 09:27:37 GMT

Rob, Totally agree. But on a development machine, we often want to crawl small bits of content. Then it isn't possible to crawl off office-hours. Experience learns that recycling a w3wp process does have some effect on the small term, but long-term, it doesn't have too much effect.

re: Fast Search for SharePoint: crawler process blocked due to memory capacity limit

Rob van Empel — Thu, 23 Aug 2012 08:29:37 GMT

Hello Bas,

The reason for the 80% is actually a very logical one from an administrative perspective. The crawl is not a critical process; if it fails, the user can still work. If this crawl were allowed to push the resource consumption on the server to 100%, the users would be impacted and other processes might suffer.

The best way around this is a dedicated crawl server or failing that, crawling during off-hours. In my large farm we originally provisioned 2 dedicated servers just for FAST search crawling (we later decided on another search solution).

Another tip: You can make a script that recycles the worker processes (which dumps a lot of memory consumption) just before the crawl starts. But this should be done during off hours as this terminates active sessions.
