Yes ... now I've noticed that our site (~50,000 documents)
gets indexed by htdig fine, but running htnotify takes an
enormous amount of RAM. We have 256 MB of physical memory
and the same amount of swap and it still uses nearly all
the available VM when running.
Is it safe to completely comment out htnotify if we don't
use the notification mechanism? Or does htnotify do some
other magic?
