Rebuilding Search Index

[scottish]

Can you pause/stop it during 'normal times' for the majority of users? (i.e. 9am-10pm or something).

I'm sure quite a few people use new posts to search the forum, and without it people just won't bother, with 7+ million posts, it's going to take like 3-4 days to rebuild, so may as well just run it at night and leave it off during day so people can actually use new posts.

If you rebuild the index, does it skip ones that are already indexed? I would assume so, so realistically this is a possibility?

Pleaseee, I need new posts!

New posts works for me. Tapatalk masterrace.

If it's not possible just use activity stream

Activity stream is useless overall as it's a huge effort to see any posts if there's multiple replies in one thread.

and does it?

[Kyle]

Yes "timeline" feature here loads posts in same manner as new posts. No repeat threads like activity stream.

Ah, so it's not actually using new posts then but yeah, ghana!!

[xxMATTGxx]

I've been told not to re-enable search.

I don't suppose he gave a reason?

Can't see a downside to stopping it during the day, except that it may take a few extra nights as it wont be running during the day.
