I use "htmerge -m /etc/htdig/onroad.conf" to merge the contents of
the database selected by onroad.conf into my main database selected by
htdig.conf. Each of these config files selects its own database using
the database_dir attribute.
E.g., in htdig.conf:
database_dir: /var/lib/htdig/db
and in onroad.conf:
database_dir: /var/lib/htdig/db/onroad
The onroad database is built very infrequently, while the main database
is rebuilt every night with "htdig -i", then "htmerge", then the htmerge
command above.
In your case, you may want to build multiple databases in separate
directories, and after any of these is updated, run a script that copies
one of the small databases over top of your main database, then merges in
all the other small databases to rebuild the main database from scratch
each time one of the others is updated.
