I'd like to send this one in. > Options to purge db_gone records in updatedb > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: NUTCH-1101 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-1101 > Project: Nutch > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: linkdb > Affects Versions: 1.4 > Reporter: Markus Jelsma > Assignee: Markus Jelsma > Fix For: 1.4 > > Attachments: NUTCH-1101-1.4-1.patch > > > Add option to updatedb to filter out records with status db_gone (http 404). > This is especially useful in cases where a crawl db is targetted at only a > specific site. If the site, for some reason, suddenly changes a lot of url's > we'll get a crawl db filled with garbage. Since the targetted site is known > (or controlled) it is safe to get rid of all these url's: reduce db size, > reduce useless http requests. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
