Amount of writes during index creation
...tests, with data mostly from a project gutenberg dvd and other books, with relatively modest index sizes, from 1 to 24 GB. Quite curiously, in this zone, with all Xapian versions I tried, the ratio from index size to the amount of writes is roughly proportional to the index size to the power 1.5 TotalWrites / (IndexSize**1.5) ~= K So, not quadratic, which is good news. For big indexes, 1.5 is not so good but probably somewhat expected. The other good news is that the patch above decreases the amount of writing by a significant factor, around 4.5 for the biggest index I tried. The amount of writes i...

But probably the merging on commit will actu...

Amount of writes during index creation
Hi, I have had a problem report from a Recoll user about the amount of writes during index creation. https://opensourceprojects.eu/p/recoll1/tickets/67/ The issue is that the index is on SSD and that the amount of writes is significant compared to the SSD life expectancy (index size > 250 GB). >From the numbers he supplied, it seems to me that the total amount of block writes is roughly
