Guys,
Does anybody have a fix for this slow indexing problem (other than turning it off). Wolfgang, do you know if Mozilla is working on anything to fix this problem?
Sorry, the best advice I can give at the moment is to shut off indexing. I have a fast raid both on my server and on my client, but still the indexing process wasn't finished after more than 30 hours... My global-messages-db.sqlite was bigger than 1 gb, and no end in sight.
Has anyone who has turned the indexing off tried to use search in tbird 3.x? If the only difference from getting rid of indexing is longer searches, that's fine. I don't do that many searches anyway and I would gladly trade a 5 minute delay in searching ever couple of days or so to get rid of hours of indexing, a "HOT" laptop due to running with the CPU pegged for hours and gigabyte index files scattered all over my box. Anyone have any experience after turning this junk off?
No problem with searching even in big mail folders. In fact the only problem I found was, that thunderbird doesn't allow me to use the body text search if I shut off indexing. This is rather frustrating because Cyrus is also indexing the mails on the server, so it the full text search was blinding fast. I will probably have to look for an alternative. :-( -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
