But apparently something is going wrong because when 0.10 reads > a 0.9 view, a rebuild is caused rather than a simple header rewrite. > Ticketed at https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-616. > Just wanted to send an update: Since our disk is steadily filling up and there's been no progress yet with #616, we're going to give http://github.com/kocolosk/couchdb/tree/0.9.2-and-view-compaction a shot. Hopefully we still have enough space to hold the compacted views alongside the uncompacted ones while compaction is in progress. If not, we'll just have to delete and rebuild them while our site is down. :( Looking forward to seeing some work on view space and time efficiency<http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-623>, and contributing as much as I can.
