[Xapian-discuss] Search delay with new version of Xapian 1.0.8
After installing Xapian version version 1.0.8 ... I noticed search delay, just before the query starts. The delay is very much noticeable when search starts, and could be related either connecting to index database or parsing Xapian query. I test this issue on various platform including FastCGI, C++, Perl and quest command prompt program that come with Xapian and all showing short delay before any search starts. When using Xapian 1.0.7 on the same same data indexed by Xapian 1.0.7 the search delay does not exist. PS: I do not recommend to upgrade to Xapian 1.0.8 Thanks, Kevin Duraj http://pacificair.com

A test case would be ideal, but failing that: Is the index you are searching with 1.0.8 created by 1.0.7 or 1.0.8? Are you using quartz or flint? How can you tell that the search delay is "just before the query starts"? A prompt reply would be good, as 1.0.9 is nearly ready for release...> PS: I do not recommend to upgrade to Xapian 1.0.8Given 1.0.8 is mostly bug-fixes and a couple of them are quite important (e.g. bug #287 can cause database corruption), I think that's somewhat dubious advice.
