Index compaction and space reclamation are triggered when the segment file size reaches this value. The default value is 512 MiB on Microsoft Windows and 4 GiB on GNU Linux and macOS. Specifying a lower value (for example, 64 MiB) may trigger index compaction more frequently in cases where an index uses a lot of disk space, or index fragmentation is high. This setting only applies to indexes created after the setting is changed. For existing indexes, you must rebuild the index after changing the setting. For more information, see [Standard Index Storage](/server/8.0/indexes/storage-modes.html#standard-index-storage). **Example:** 67108864 | Integer (int32) | | **indexer.​rebalance.​transferBatchSize**optional | Sets the batch size Couchbase Server uses when rebuilding index files during rebalance. This setting has no effect on file-based rebalance. Couchbase Server breaks the rebuilding of indexes during a rebalance into batches to limit the effect on performance. This setting controls the maximum number of indexes that a rebalance rebuilds concurrently. You must have the Full Admin or the Cluster Admin role to set this value. For an overview of rebalance as it affects the Index Service, including an overview of smart batching, see [Rebalance](/server/8.0/learn/clusters-and-availability/rebalance.html#rebalancing-the-index-service). **Default:** 3 **Example:** 7 | Integer (int32) | | **indexer.​settings.​allow\_large\_keys**optional | Whether the size of index keys is unlimited. If true, index keys may have unlimited size. If false, the maximum size for index keys and array index keys is specified by indexer.settings.max\_seckey\_size and indexer.settings.max\_array\_seckey\_size. In Couchbase Server 6.5 and later, the Index Service does not need to restart when you update this setting. **Default:** true | Boolean | | **indexer.​settings.​bufferPoolBlockSize**optional | Buffer pool block size. **Default:** 16384 | Integer (int32) | | **indexer.​settings.​build.​batch\_size**optional | Build batch size. **Default:** 5 | Integer (int32) | | **indexer.​settings.​compaction.​abort\_exceed\_interval**optional | Whether to abort index compaction if it's still running after the end of the index compaction interval. **Default:** false | Boolean | | **indexer.​settings.​compaction.​check\_period**optional | An interval, specifying how frequently the Index Service checks whether the compaction threshold has been reached (seconds). **Default:** 30 | Integer (int32) | | **indexer.​settings.​compaction.​compaction\_mode**optional | The compaction mode for indexes. **Values:** "standard", "circular" **Default:** "circular" | String | | **indexer.​settings.​compaction.​days\_of\_week**optional | The days of the week on which circular compaction is to run, if specified. Individual values must be day-names, each specified with an initial capital, and otherwise lower-case. Multiple values must be separated by a single comma, with no spaces. **Default:** "Sunday,Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday,Friday,Saturday" **Example:** "Saturday,Sunday" | String | | **indexer.​settings.​compaction.​interval**optional | A string in the form fromHour:fromMinute,toHour:toMinute, specifying the interval during which index compaction can run. fromHour — An integer between 0 and 23 inclusive, specifying the starting hour of the interval. fromMinute — An integer between 0 and 59 inclusive, specifying the starting minute of the interval, within the specified starting hour. toHour — An integer between 0 and 23 inclusive, specifying the concluding hour of the interval. toMinute — An integer between 0 and 59 inclusive, specifying the concluding minute of the interval, within the specified concluding hour. The default value means any time. **Default:** "00:00,00:00" **Example:** "01:00,05:59" | String | | **indexer.​settings.​compaction.​min\_frag**optional | The minimum fragmentation threshold to trigger compaction (percentage). **Default:** 30 **Minimum:** 5 | Integer (int32) | | **indexer.​settings.​compaction.​min\_size**optional | Compaction minimum file size. **Default:** 524288000 | Integer (int32) | | **indexer.​settings.​compaction.​plasma.​manual**optional | For standard indexes using Plasma, whether compaction should be triggered manually. **Default:** false | Boolean | | **indexer.​settings.​compaction.​plasma.​optional.​decrement**optional | For standard indexes using Plasma, the optional decrement. **Default:** 5 | Integer (int32) | | **indexer.​settings.​compaction.​plasma.​optional.​min\_frag**optional | For standard indexes using Plasma, the minimum fragmentation threshold to trigger compaction (percentage). **Default:** 20 | Integer (int32) | | **indexer.​settings.​compaction.​plasma.​optional.​quota**optional | For standard indexes using Plasma, the optional quota. **Default:** 25 | Integer (int32) | | **indexer.​settings.​corrupt\_index\_num\_backups**optional | Corrupt index number of backups. **Default:** 1 | Integer (int32) | | **indexer.​settings.​cpuProfDir**optional | The name of the directory where local CPU usage profiling information is captured. | String | | **indexer.​settings.​cpuProfile**optional | Whether the Index Service should capture local CPU usage profiling information. **Default:** false | Boolean | | **indexer.​settings.​defer\_build**optional | The default setting for the defer\_build option for index creation. If this setting is true, and you create an index without specifying defer\_build, the index is not built immediately. If this setting false, and you create an index without specifying defer\_build, the index is built immediately. You can override this setting by specifying the defer\_build option when you create an index. **Default:** false | Boolean | | **indexer.​settings.​eTagPeriod**optional | The ETag (entity tag) period. **Default:** 240 | Integer (int32) | | **indexer.​settings.​enable\_corrupt\_index\_backup**optional | Whether corrupt index backup is enabled. **Default:** false | Boolean | | **indexer.​settings.​enable\_page\_bloom\_filter**optional | Whether Bloom filters are enabled for memory management.

See [Index Rebalance Methods](/server/8.0/learn/clusters-and-availability/rebalance.html#index-rebalance-methods). If false (the default), Index Service nodes rebuild indexes that are newly assigned to them during a rebalance. If true, Couchbase Server moves a reassigned index's files between Index Service nodes. If set to true, when you create an index, you can use the WITH clause to specify which node should contain the index. However, when you alter an index, you cannot use the WITH clause to specify which node should contain the index. **Default:** false | Boolean | | **indexer.​settings.​fast\_flush\_mode**optional | Whether fast flush mode is enabled. **Default:** true | Boolean | | **indexer.​settings.​gc\_percent**optional | Garbage collection percentage. **Default:** 100 | Integer (int32) | | **indexer.​settings.​inmemory\_snapshot.​fdb.​interval**optional | For standard indexes using Forestdb, the in-memory snapshot interval (ms).
