Thanks Jan, that article answers a lot of questions. re the following quote: "There is also an option (under development) to immediately return a stale copy of the view in case the client can tolerate that."
My application needs to do hundreds of thousands of index updates for every incoming piece of data, so being able to return a stale result is critical. Where can I find some documentation about this option?
