Just found a little problem (step by step):

I call my index as follows:
$ sudo indexer [indexname] --rotate

This will index the mysql-table, which takes about 1 - 1.5 hour. After indexing, when
searchd has to rotate, it sends an error to searchd.log:

WARNING: rotating index '[indexname]': preread failed: read error in
/srv/sphinx/[indexname].new.spa; 2147479552 of 2431139872 bytes read; using old index

2147479552 bytes is almost 2048MB, so 2 GB. Is there some kind of maximum, or should I
start looking into my system to find the problem?

Thanks,

Peter

Possibly a config problem I'd look through and try and find it.
I might come accross this in a few days time - tryin to index a large forum.
