eZ Find update search index solr and solr optimize

Tuesday 21 July 2009 2:45:52 am

Hello,

I would like a confirmation:

- The updatesearchindexsolr.php script "reindexes the meta data to the search engine".
- The ezsolroptimize.php script "sends an optimize message to the solr search server".

Looking in the updatesearchindexsolr.php code, I can see that after the reindexation, the script also call the optimize method.

$searchEngine->optimize( true );

So the question is, is it necessary to execute ezsolroptimize.php after a updatesearchindexsolr.php execution, or can I put in comments the $searchEngine->optimize( true ); in updatesearchindexsolr.php and call both scripts?

Thanks a lot!

Hello,

Actually the optimize call is at the end of the reindexing process and also after each 1000 reindexed objects (and clearcache calls, to prevent from memory limit?). It seems like it is too much optimize calls.

Somebody at eZ Systems told me that a new version (2.1) of ezfind would be out soon, and would correct the huge number of optimize calls on scripts.

I also think that 1000 is a random number, it depends on the contents database website.

So yes, it would be a nice script change.
