We have clean & working 3.8 dbase....

It was restored from back up of old forum (hotcopy). Through 72 hours only less than 20 we were online, so I had to do something.
Looks like I lost something like 40% of the traffic. Hope to restore...

After 24 hours of indexing I am at 700k posts. A month od indexation, wow.
Sphinx - no thank you. I will be integrating another (paid) solution, but still need the internal search. What's the CLI/WEB...

[zlos]

I have 25.000.000 posts to be indexed, with current speed 5-10 seconds for 100 posts it will take centuries.

Would you please elaborate a bit more about making it happen in this century?...

I don't know where to look for similiar reports, but I need to share my todays findings.

1. Do you have gmail.com email account?

Let's assume email address is [email protected]...

[zlos]

BTW: I stopped the upgrade. The dev server must be run with SSD disk to make it faster...

[zlos]

I am just a customer
Whom shall I beg so "Monsignore Cappo di tutti Produkto" will read it?
What is his bank account? And address?

[zlos]

Yes.


I am testing the upgrade on the dev-server. Production environment works as always

OK. Let's discuss example procedure:

1. Constructing "big_tables"...
