I'll look into the hang and other things this weekend. I suspect it's due to either overlapping appends and/or queries and things becoming inconsistent. I tried a decorator which interrupts and waits for an idle append to return, that seems quite effective and i think solves a subset of errors i've seen. I am getting some xapian.DatabaseCorruption Errors in the branch which occur during either documt selection from the db (xapiandb.get_document(match.docid)) or on get_mset(). I dont really know what to think here. Perhaps creating new AppEnquire's each time we need to do a query, similar to how we use the existing AppStore? -- >From the mind of me!
