Hey. I've been trying out various delta indexing mechanisms on a
moderately busy site. These are my findings:

  :delta => true, calls out to indexer immediately, not good when busy
  :delta => :datetime, relies on sphinx merge which is unstable
  :delta => :delayed, creates ~2 jobs each time a change is made, lots
of overhead

I think :delta => :datetime is the "correct" solution for me, but I
cannot rely on sphinx to do things right here. So I'm looking for a
4th delta mechanism that doesn't make 1 save equal to 1 or more
indexer calls and searchd SIGHUP's.

I'm considering implementing a :delta => :bulk option which would be a
cross between :delta => true and :delta => :delayed

What do people do in general on busy sites? Am I misinterpreting the
current delta possibilities or is there a reliable way to do bulk
delta updating currently?

Thanks.
