I've downloaded wordnet-rdf.princeton.edu RDF dataset, which is a quite large
one (about 1.3GB).
This is an example entity from the dataset

So I decided to try a different query, to "search entities by label instead of
by subject". This is what I tried
-------------------------------------
PREFIX rdf: <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#>
PREFIX wn31: <http://wordnet-rdf.princeton.edu/wn31/>
PREFIX wno: <http://wordnet-rdf.princeton.edu/ontology#>
PREFIX rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#>
SELECT *
WHERE
{
?synset a wno:Synset ;
rdfs:label ?label ;
wno:gloss ?gloss .
FILTER regex(?label, "entity", "i")
}
LIMIT 10
-------------------------------------
what happened:
- for a long time after loading the dataset (more than 1h), this last query
timed out all the times I submitted it. So I thought it was a problem with
indexes, and that I should read more about Jena indexes
- but now all of a sudden it seems to work, albeit the query seems to take a
few seconds to complete (which still feels a bit too slow since the database is
local on the same machine, and the dataset is not *that* huge)
Does anybody know what I've run into? Do indexes have anything to do with this,
or maybe some jena/fuseki cache/bootstrap activity, or it's just some monkey
business going on with my computer? This feels so strange because I don't think
I have done anything relevant with my computer that could have influenced this
query. I just loaded the dataset into Fuseki, then started querying...
Thank you.
