Hi Manuel,

htdig -i forces a 'from scratch' recrawl.

htdig be default does a traversal of the existing index and issues HEAD requests to see if a page has changed. Exactly what you described below...

Please make sure you have 'head_before_get' enabled.

What version are you using?

Thanks

Hello,

I tried the general list but it seems nobody could help. Lets see if anybody can help here:

I have been using htdig for years to crawl a site that now has over
10.000 pages. Since it may go through many changes in the pages I have been reindexing the whole site once on a daily basis.


However this lazy indexing approach is taking too much resources.
Therefore I am looking into a better approach of keeping a list of only
the pages that have changed and just reindex those pages in much shorter cycle than what I am doing.


My question is how can I reindex just a few pages at once and merge the
crawled pages with a previously indexed site database? I mean, index
only a few pages that I list and only follow links to site pages that
were not yet indexed.
