We're in the process of switching Sphinx over to do indexing from the
slave DB based on this blog post...

http://www.mendable.com/2010/05/31/thinking-sphinx-performance-index-from-slave-mysql-database.html

However, we've been running delayed deltas, and it appears that the
database user needs more than select access in order to manage the
delta flags. Since it's a slave db, we obviously don't want to enable
any write access.

I had kind of expected this, but before we ditch delayed deltas, I
wanted to follow up and make sure that there wasn't a great solution
out there that I was missing.

I'm guessing we should just use Datetime Deltas or simply increase our
indexing frequency. We're currently running full indexes 4 times a
day, but we could bump that up to hourly without any problems on the
new setup. Indexing is now running entirely on its own job server
(along with a few other background processing things), so it's not too
big of a deal to just increase our indexing frequency.

Any recommendations would be appreciated. :)
