Optimization keywords
The following table describes the optimization keywords for the
-optimize
option:
Keyword
Description
maxclean
Performs the most comprehensive housekeeping possible, and removes out-of-date
collection files. Macromedia recommends this optimization only when you are
preparing an isolated collection for publication. When using this type, if the collection
is being searched, files sometimes get deleted too early, which can affect search
results.
maxmerge
Performs maximal merging on the partitions to create partitions that are as large as
possible. This creates partitions that can have up to 64000 documents in them.
readonly
Marks the collection as read-only and unchanged after the function call is done. This
is appropriate for CD-ROM collections.
spanword
Creates a spanning word list across all the collection’s partitions. A collection consists
of numerous smaller units, called partitions, each of which includes a word list.
Optionally, a spanning word list can be built with an ngram index.
