Splunk Search

Is this statement on Splunk search types correct?

I have found this entry in one of the blogs (non-Splunk). Do you think this statement is correct?

The following are search terms we will be generating based on a 10,000,000 line file.

· Very Dense Search, 1 out of 100 lines, 100,000 occurrences.

· Dense Search, 1 out of 1000 lines, 10,000 occurrences.

· Extremely Rare Search, 1 out of 100,000,000 lines

· Sparse Search, 1 out of 10,000,000 lines, 1 occurrence.

· Rare Search 1 out of 1,000,000 lines, 10 occurrences.

Hi sreejith2k2,

while there are some good sources out there, I would stick to the docs http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.4.3/Capacity/HowsearchtypesaffectSplunkEnterpriseperfo... in this case.

Hope this helps ...

cheers, MuS

I did see this link.. but I am confused with Super-parse and rare search. If I have 10 million lines, what will be the occurrences?
