James Howe updated COUCHDB-1791: -------------------------------- Description: {code:javascript} function(doc) { if (doc.a === 'b') { emit(doc._id, null); } } {code} This view, running on CouchDB 1.2.1, takes 16 minutes to index from scratch on an inactive database, creating a 2.5GB file. After compaction, the file is then only 157MB. Can we do something about this waste of disk I/O, such that the initial index is smaller to start with? was: function(doc) { if (doc.a = 'b') { emit(doc._id, null); } } This view, running on CouchDB 1.2.1, takes 16 minutes to index from scratch on an inactive database, creating a 2.5GB file.
