[Xapian-discuss] Performance question

[Jim Lynch]

Hi,
I'm testing an Irix instance of 0.8.1.  I have a number of documents 
indexed, here is a directory listing:

/usr/local/lib/oasis/closed22:
total 2700

I added with scriptindex 145 documents as shown:

Processing 22219.dat Wed Sep  1 07:54:58 2004
records (added, replaced, deleted) = (145, 0, 0)
Finished 22219.dat Wed Sep  1 07:55:46 2004

The documents were contained in a single file, a wc is shown:

 wc closed22/22220.dat
         18459         95858        720455 closed22/22220.dat

Does this sound like it is performing OK?  It seems a little slow to me, 
but I'd like another opinion.

Thanks,
Jim.
