Hi,

This is the inverted index that is called db.words.db

The default size is the default size chosen by Berkeley DB
(I think it is 128K which is much too small for serious indexing)

For htdig this very important. Make the cache as big as you can (no
bigger than 75% of the amount of memory on your machine)
For htsearch, well, it's not clear how important it is, it doesn't
hurt to put a big one (the memory is allocated by Berkeley DB only
when it needs it...)
Marcel.
