OK, I'm ready to make use of your feature now
Server is scheduled for upgrade to php5 next week, then I want to enable searching on numbers as described above.
The part that concerns me is the rebuilding of the search index, which is said to take a 'long time'. So how long is a 'long time'? I know you can't answer that, but...
My msg_1 file is 120Mb. Current fud_index table has 4,500,000 rows. Server is lightly loaded, loadav usually below 1, have just upgraded the ram to 1.5Gb so it is not needing the pagefile.
Are we talking 30 minutes, or 10 hours, or what? It's a managed server and has a php timeout which I can't increase (I think it is 100minutes). Can I run this reindex from the command line so it runs faster?
What happens if the index is only partially rebuilt? Then I have no useable index at all... Would it be a case then of reinstalling the old fud_index table from backup?
I assume the forum is unavailable during the rebuild?
Thanks
Simon Child
