Yes, thanks Olly (we noticed that).

Btw, the system we're designing roughly has the following (targeted) specs:

- 6 Hosts
- volume ~ 50TB
- 5MB/s inserts
- 400updates**/s    **mostly document values

According to the Xapian website, this may become one of the "bigger"
Xapian systems. Any idea, how "big", say, Gmane is ?


Regards,
