Markus Jelsma commented on NUTCH-1052:
--------------------------------------
Perhaps an even better solution is to keep SolrClean as a tool to purge the
whole index of all 404's existing in the CrawlDB and change the indexers to
optionally send delete commands.
IndexerMapReduce skips non FETCH_SUCCESS CrawlDatum's. If can be modified to
pass those records. Only problem is how get a delete flag in the SolrWriter; it
takes only a NutchDocument object.
With this approach we make the SolrClean tool obsolete in regular crawl cycles
which makes a huge difference with large indexes and CrawlDB.

> Project: Nutch
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: indexer
> Affects Versions: 1.3, 1.4
> Reporter: Tim Pease
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.4, 2.0

>
> The SolrClean class does not keep track of purged URLs, it only checks the
> URL status for "db_gone". When run multiple times the same list of URLs will
> be deleted from Solr. For small, stable crawl databases this is not a
> problem. For larger crawls this could be an issue. SolrClean will become an
> expensive operation.
> One solution is to add a "purged" flag in the CrawlDatum metadata. SolrClean
> would then check this flag in addition to the "db_gone" status before adding
> the URL to the delete list.
> Another solution is to add a new state to the status field
> "db_gone_and_purged".
> Either way, the crawl DB will need to be updated after the Solr delete has
> successfully occurred.
