Just curious for people's indexer updates, how often do you do them and how to you manage the delta vs full?
Right now I have a cron job running every 5 minutes to do the delta files since they only take a few seconds. I do a full rebuild maybe once a week or so (after disabling the delta cronjob so it doesn't try to run at the same time).
I would like to automate the full rebuild, but changing the delta one would require a really ugly cron looking line. Alternatively I could have another script check the time and figure out which job to run and if a job is already running and all that.
Second, how do you guys rotate your searchd & query log files? The only way I have gotten it to do that is to kill searchd completely and restart it. It would be nice if there was a more graceful method.
Oh boy... found a little issue that might affect some people...
*If* you are running MySQL 4.0.x you can't do the sub-selects in the conf file. Not a *huge* deal as the code can be re-written (which I'm doing now). Yes I know I should be running a much newer version of mysql, but I have an app that uses the old timestamp format and I haven't had a chance to re-write it all completely, thus I'm still using the old mysql.
I'll post the modified conf up later once I fix it compeltely and edit out stuff specific to my forum.
