I just set it up using the info in post 1 and the files from post 582

I used the info from this post to make sure it stayed running and this post to setup the crons for delta and nightly.

Other than that the only changes I made were from my previous post to fix the "find more posts by this user" issue.

It is now up and running on my 3.8.4pl2 forums with:
Threads: 799,861, Posts: 11,892,282, Members: 24,815

I set the max amount of of results to 20,000 and it's working great. Searches no longer take my forum to it's knees.

The things I haven't done yet are to remove the indexes from post and convert my tables to innodb.


Total cost? My time reading through this never ending thread and compiling the data above.
