Sure!
That makes more sense than having it here in the mailinglist :)

I am very happy with the way this discussion turned out!
Now I have written a tiny ruby script that updates the views for every tenth document update and at most once every second under heavy updates. Here on my development machine it uses about 1.2 mb of ram, and I can live with that.

I'll include it here in case somebody reads this discussion in the future and needs a similar script.

Would you mind putting it on the Wiki? For the obvious benefits :)

Good work there,

Cheers
Jan
