Thats how i use Xindice too, is it a professional CMS or ur own? > A) Are there any experiences about the performance (time, memory) of > XINDICE out there ? What is the limit where it gets too slow ? I never get to the limit and i have about 2 gigs in my Xindice. But u have to use the right Indexes for such amount of data. Some Month ago someone wrote that xindice is able to hold 1 Million documents with a size of about 20-50kb efficiently..... take u calculator ;) > B) Which platform is recommended ?

I would decide to linux, cause the xpath problem u already have and Xindice is open like a "scheunentor" so u have to install a firewall, which is much better to do in linux. > C) What about stability ? no problem, im running it since last year > D) I am a Perl fan :-) Has anyone used XINDICE together with Perl (maybe > via RPC) ? i did it with PHP, its working, but there are some special character Problems. Think twice and develop in Java and use the fine JavaAPI hope that helps
