In prior versions of CF, bad things would happen if you searched a
collection while it was being indexed or optimized. To deal with this
problem, we'd use leapfrogging index schemes, where one collection would be
used for searches while another identical collection could be reindexed.
In any case, you might have problems with your database driver. You're using
long-text capability, which is likely to show memory problems quicker. I've
seen these sorts of problems with database drivers before quite often.
