search re-indexing is underway. this is what it says:

"The search backend is currently indexing all posts on the board. This can take from a few minutes to a few hours depending on your board’s size."

I'm guessing hours :)

"All posts up to post id 61400 have now been indexed, of which 100 posts were within this step.
The current rate of indexing is approximately 4.7 posts per second.

Sloooooooowwwwwww. :-?

We have over 200,000 posts.
At 5/second, with 140,000 to go, there's almost 8 hours left... It also looks like it's bogging down the forums. Sorry bout that...

Funny this topic's title versus its content :)

Current db size is 238mb. Files are stored separately from db, thank goodness!

Hi there,

I just want to report something I discovered, using Explorer 7. When I use the "post reply" function to post a reply, you normally have a smaller window with all previous posts inside. Is some occasions the scrollbar of this small window is gone. What I normally do is that I click once in the smal window and then I use the Page Up/Down keys to scroll in that window. So there are workarounds, but I think it works a little bit different than it should. Just wanted to report it. :)

cheers,

Darcy

Hey Darcy,

Yes, I see what you mean. Thanks for the report.

Damn IE! Works fine in Firefox :)

Um, so, WTF do I do about that??

I have no idea, John. Sorry :)
Maybe everybody should use Firefox and ditch Explorer, including me ;)
