Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-1602:
-----------------------------------------
Hi [~DonaldVdD], MCF keeps crude statistics on how often the doc changes. As I
said, it gets recrawled *eventually*, and if it does not change, the time is
doubled until the next crawl, up to the maximum the job is configured for.
As for when the job "stops", the continuous crawl jobs do not stop. They run
indefinitely until manually aborted.
> Continuous crawling doesn't recrawl everything

> Key: CONNECTORS-1602
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-1602
> Project: ManifoldCF
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Web connector
> Reporter: Donald Van den Driessche
> Priority: Major
>
> When crawling a website in continuous crawling mode we saw that not all
> documents are recrawled.
> The site is quite extensive. We figured out that after crawling a
> document/page gets a recrawl timestamp in between the recrawl interval and
> max recrawl interval.
> But if these values occur within the first crawl, Manifold starts recrawling
> those, but seems to ignore the rest of the website. Also sometimes documents
> get recrawled 5 times while other don't get recrawled. Apparently due to the
> same issue.
>
> Is it possible to shed a bit more light on the continuous crawling?
> Is it a good system to use for crawling a (extensive) website?
