Not sure if plain users are allowed/encouraged to post in this list, but wanted to mention (just an opinion from a happy user), as other users have, that not all of us can reindex just like that. It would not be 10 min for one of our installations for sure...
First, i would need to implement some code to reindex, cause my source data is postprocessed/compressed/encrypted/moved after it arrives to the application, so I would need to retrieve all etc. And then reindexing it would take days. javier On Thu, Apr 15, 2010 at 9:04 PM, Earwin Burrfoot <ear...@gmail.com> wrote: >> BTW Earwin, we can come up w/ a migrate() method on IW to accomplish >> manual migration on the segments that are still on old versions. >> That's not the point about whether optimize() is good or not.
