This time it seems zebra work for both indexing and search.
Excellent news!
What has to be done : * benchmarking : it seems the zebraidx update is faster than lightning (400biblios/sec : 10 000biblios in 25seconds), while ZOOM indexing is slow (something like 25biblios/second) More benchmarking could be done.
That is a surprising difference, since as you no doubt know, "ZOOM indexing" is merely the use of ZOOM to pass the records to Zebra for indexing. I flatly refuse to believe that the communication layer is responsible for a slow-down by a factor of 16, so something else is going on here. My best guess is that "zebraidx update" is making use of caching mechanisms that ZOOM's update requests are not benefiting from. There may be a way to have ZOOM request that caching: Adam will be able to tell us. _/|_ ___________________________________________________________________ /o ) \/ Mike Taylor <mike@miketaylor.org.uk> http://www.miketaylor.org.uk )_v__/\ "Lisp is just glorified C with completely different brackets" -- Harvey "Max" Thompson.
