indexing is done when rebuild_index returns. atm there is no logging of
the progress rebuild_index already has made with a running rebuild.
However I'm thinking about adding some kind of logging now.

if rebuild_index returns normally and no error is thrown, I'd say it was
successful and indexed all your records. To make sure you have all 10
million documents in the index, you can inspect the index with a small
script like that:
require 'rubygems'
require 'ferret'
reader = Ferret::Index::IndexReader.new('path/to/index')
puts "#{reader.num_docs} documents in index"
cheers,
