Hi John,

I am a fresh man in this group . I have two questions when I used fastbit to do 
my work.

1. To generate fastbit index, I follow two steps. First, ardea command to 
generate fastbit data. Then ibis command to generate fastbit index.
   My question is that whether I can reduce time which costs on generating 
fastbit data by decrease string length for the text type column.

2. I used to generate fastbit index by the version 1.3.8 before. And now , I 
upgrade my fastbit version to 2.0.2, then generating fastbit index does not 
work well for the following parameters(fig1). It seems that the parameter 
“none” does not work. I compared two version of source code about index.cpp, 
and located the piece of code which spec variable compare to “none”,”noindex”. 
In my opinion the code is right, I am confused about the result that building 
all index for columns.

$fastbithome/bin/ibis -v -d $indexdir \
-b 6 \
-b "a:none" \
-b "b:none" \
-b "c:none" \
-b 'd:keywords delimiters=";"' \
-b 'e:keywords delimiters=";"' \
-b 'f:keywords delimiters=";"' \
-b "*:<binning none/><encoding equality/>" -z

fig1

Thanks,
Roman
