the volume of data is about 10 MB per experiment (mostly image data). and there are ~100 experiments. im not sure what details you are asking for. the rst-writing and index.rst generation are all done through scripts. then i call make html. i think the problem stems from the fact that i am re-writing the index.rst everytime, and sphinx then re-copies all downloadable files (files references with :download:), which are referenced in the pages listed on index.
i am trying to create a single index page which links to all experiments' sub-pages, but i dont want to have *all* :download:'able files copied every time a single experiment is added to the index toctree . that page is interesting. i gather its a web application that calls sphinx to produce the formated output? i hope this is clear, please let me know if its not.
