Using any FTS is advisable, currently suitable ones would be SOLR or
Xapian (see https://github.com/grosjo/fts-xapian)



Hi Aki,

I didn't yet think about using FTS either but followed a bit the thread
about developing the Xapian plugin.
How stable is that now?

https://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/FTS says above:

"The following FTS indexers (in preferred order) are supported"

but fts-xapian is listed below all others and Solr at the top.
Solr fts plugin is developed by dovecot developers therefore an 
"official" plugin. Xapian is an "unofficial" plugin developed by Joan 
Moreau.

Is the wiki just outdated?

Felix

Using any FTS is advisable, currently suitable ones would be SOLR or
Xapian (see https://github.com/grosjo/fts-xapian)

Hi
So you're advised to use a solr or something else?

Hi!

Dovecot indexes are not actually related to FTS that much. Using FTS
usually makes sense since it speeds up IMAP fulltext searches.

solr vs fts

2019-07-04 Thread Maciej Milaszewski IQ PL via dovecot
Hi
I have a question about tunning dovecot-2.2.36.x

Mail was stared in storage via nfs in MAILDIR via
/home/us/usern...@domain.ltd/MAILDIR/
I use additionally local dovecot_indexes via SSD disk
(/var/dovecot_indexes%h)

A few clients have 25K and more e-mail

I thinking about use solr like:
 fts = solr
 fts_solr = debug url=http://IP:8983/solr/ (solr in external machine)

Does it make sense ? use dovecot_indexes and fts ?
What is the difference in performance?
