[Xapian-discuss] Database flush problem

[Richard Heycock]

Excerpts from Matt Chen's message of Mon Jun 29 17:08:07 +1000 2009:
> hey,
> 
>   Thank you for excellent work, I have a little problem here.
> 
>   I made a search daemon, it holds a database obj for a long time,
> while the search request comes, it searches and return the results.
> For my own point of view, I think it holds a database obj is good for
> performance, it doesn't need to build database for every request. But
> I found if I have changed the database, like delete a document, the
> database didn't flush, only if I restart the search daemon.
> 
>   So my question is, the long life database obj, does it matter ? For
> every request build new database obj, is it right ? or is there a
> better way to handle this that I don't know ?
> 
>   Thank you.
