I think you'd be better off tracking access by inserting an immutable document with a new timestamp and doc._id of the accessed document.
You could then create a view that 'joined' the timestamp doc with real doc, by
emiting timestamp as key and { _id: accessed_doc._id } as the value then
requesting with_docs=true if I remember correctly…
Updating doc to append a timestamp would be inherently slow if you have a high
volume of repeat access and cause your views to consistently have to update…
just my 2¢
