FIrst off, it would really help if you mentioned what version of
ht://Dig, what OS, where you got ht://Dig (i.e. source or package),
compiler, etc. Secondly, I'll mention what I said in the FAQ. There
is no limit whatsoever to what ht://Dig can handle if you have proper
resources.
I don't know why you didn't see any replies in the list archives...
Nevertheless, normally when we get bug reports of this type, they
seem completely transient. When we try to get debugging information
from people, their response is typically "oh, it doesn't happen
anymore, I'll let you know if it comes back." (NOTE: If you've sent a
database report before and it's still happening, speak up!)
So my first suggestion is to try reindexing from scratch. Do you
still see it? If so, are you willing to apply a patch, compile in
debugging code and run htsearch through gdb?
Thanks,
