Or is it updating the delta indexes every 20 minutes pretty much as described here in 2007?

If you do an "indexer --all --rotate" every 20min, you will blow your servers. It takes in average 20-30min to rebuild the indexes from scratch on a 10GB database. In my product, the indexes are updated every 10min, regardless of the database size. It takes in average 30sec-1min to refresh the data, all the time with no "indexer --all --rotate" commands used ever. Of course, that includes the threads/posts that were deleted or edited. What is the point to store a deleted post into indexes. Not to mention that if you edit the contents of a post, the deleted keywords should not be available into search. When you rebuild the indexes, all "errors" are gone... but that occurs every 24hrs for the vB.org product.

Also, I don't know if you consider this advertising... because I don't. It is a logical explanation on how my system works. It is like talking about Community Server at vBulletin... yet I don't see anyone chasing the people who reply about an open asked question related to their product and replied by one of their reps.
