Many archives will have thousands of messages, some will have hundreds of thousands. There's no reasonable way to avoid indexes when you've got more than "dozens" of files. The stats alone will kill performance. If you want a full-text solution, you're going to have to use a lot of disk space (typically as much as the compressed archives themselves, and for some databases, more). Also, I don't really see why a few hours' delay for indexing recent messages would be a problem. _______________________________________________ Mailman-Developers mailing list Mailman-Developers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-developers%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-developers/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9
