Hi!
First of all thank you, developers and contributors, for a great search
engine you've made.
I have a couple of questions.
1. When i runned index -N 10 (for exanple) a got zombies in my
system ( shown by top) .
------------
87 processes: 83 sleeping, 1 running, 3 zombie, 0 stopped
------------
these zombies are also marked by <defunct> mark in ps output.
-------------
26857 pts/10 S 0:00 sbin/index -N 10 -r /tmp/aspseek.log
26858 pts/10 Z 0:00 [index <defunct>]
26859 pts/10 Z 0:00 [index <defunct>]
26860 pts/10 Z 0:00 [index <defunct>]
26863 pts/10 S 0:00 sbin/index -N 10 -r /tmp/aspseek.log
26864 pts/10 S 0:00 sbin/index -N 10 -r /tmp/aspseek.log
26865 pts/10 S 0:00 sbin/index -N 10 -r /tmp/aspseek.log
26866 pts/10 S 0:02 sbin/index -N 10 -r /tmp/aspseek.log
26867 pts/10 S 0:01 sbin/index -N 10 -r /tmp/aspseek.log
26868 pts/10 S 0:00 sbin/index -N 10 -r /tmp/aspseek.log
26869 pts/10 S 0:00 sbin/index -N 10 -r /tmp/aspseek.log
26870 pts/10 S 0:00 sbin/index -N 10 -r /tmp/aspseek.log
26871 pts/10 S 0:00 sbin/index -N 10 -r /tmp/aspseek.log
26872 pts/10 S 0:00 sbin/index -N 10 -r /tmp/aspseek.log
26873 pts/10 S 0:01 sbin/index -N 10 -r /tmp/aspseek.log

And after a while I noticed that the whole index process was not doing his
job. (index disappeared from the first lines of 'top' and sbin/index -S
didn't show any changes )
tail -f /tmp/aspseek.log showed me

i tried to terminate it safely, but sbin/index -E terminated only a few
threads - others were still running.
!!!! note: during further experiments with aspseek I failed to terminate even
a thread from the whole process
!!!!! note: trying to increase the -number of resolvers with -R didn't
help me fighting with zombies and with actual stopping of index routine.
this situation didn't change after a night and I killed (with killall -KILL
index ) the rest of index threads . all the zombies disappeared but
sbin/index -D finished very quickly, so I understood that not there was a
small amount of URLs indexed.
sbin/index -S acknoledged that. (the difference was very small)

May be you need some more information ??
But a single-threaded index is excellent.
2. If a webpage contains in it's source, nbsp; is displayed
in search result (that's right, without "&").
How can this be cured ?
P.S.
I run
Slackware 8.0 2.2.19 SMP
Intel PIII SMP
Aspseek 1.2.5 compiled without unicode and with mysql.
