Hi, Sean. It's been in the back of my mind to do this, but I'm relunctant to get started on it without some news from Geoff about how the latest mifluz code merge is going. Lorenzo's patch broke after an earlier mifluz upgrade, so I don't want to invest a lot of time into updating the patch to the mifluz database walking code in the current 3.2.0b4 snapshot only to have the patch break again. Geoff seemed to indicate the mifluz merge wouldn't be much longer, so if it can wait till then, I'd rather only have to do this once. > > -----Original Message----- > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Gilles > > Detillieux > > Sent: Wednesday 20 March 2002 04:59 PM > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: Re: [htdig] HTMerge memory problem > > > ----- > > > > The fix is to do as Lorenzo Campedelli's patch to 3.2.0b2 did > > (http://www.opdenbrouw.nl/htdig/maindocs/patches/3.2.0b2/htmerge.0), > > and make htmerge walk through the database one item at a time, instead > > of collecting everything into a huge list.
