hi All,
We have been using couchdb (built out of trunk) for prototyping an idea and
would like to thank and congratulate you folks for a simple and usable schema
free db.
We plan to store few million documents in couchdb and we would like to create
couple of views to fetch the data appropriately. We have inserted a million
documents (each containing about 20 fields). We are indexing/creating a view on
a particular field of the document. The map function of the view is simple
straight forward emit (emit(doc.field, doc)). It takes about 90 mins to build
the required B-Tree index the first time. All the subsequent queries are
performing extremely well (milli second responses). Can anything be done to
reduce the 90 mins taken to build the required B-Tree index the first time?
Environment details:
Couchdb - 0.9.0a757326
