Abstract
Better system resource utilization for search engine clusters can result in significant benefits. By allocating cluster machines to the job that requires the most computational power, indexing and querying both realize performance gains. In this paper we discuss an approach to better system resource utilization which was tested by implementing it in a cluster-based search engine. We test the approach on 100 000 webpages from the uct.ac.za domain. Our results show the benefits of enhanced system resource utilization in a search engine cluster.
