Hi Mark (and Josh), and thanks for your help! If you're running searchd on both app servers, couldn't they be set up so that the index is distributed between the two and they talk to each other over the network? At least that's how I envision the distributed indices Sphinx supports work. Or would that not work with TS? Delta indices might cause some trouble with that, I could imagine.
