Dear all, I have a possibly dumb/trivial question with regards to resource utilization with BaseX. It's basically two things:
1) I'm working with a database that is smaller than the available memory in my main research machine. I noticed the MAINMEM option, but for some reason I couldn't get it to work, and then noticed that it would only affect newly created db's. Is it possible to tell BaseX to create a db in disk, and then load it into memory in full? would this increase performance? Would something like SET MAINMEM = true COPY DB 'diskDB' 'memDB' achieve something along these lines? 2) The machine I'm working on has a quad core processor. Is there anyway to process queries in parallel to take advantage of this? I made some superficial attempts through splitting queries and running them simultaneously, but it seems that the server is still confined to one cpu. I understand that adding multithreading support could be unnecesary and out of the scope of the project, but I thought of asking since I was already coming here to ask about memory. Thanks for any tips! jta. -- entia non sunt multiplicanda praeter necessitatem
