By the way, that’s possibly being done virtually in real time anyway. As of the last upgrade some months ago, it’s my understanding that we have enough solid state drive capacity installed that everything that gets accessed is held in solid state memory to minimize drive accessing. In fact, I seem to remember john saying we now have enough capacity to hold the entire database in memory. But, obviously, there’s a wrench in the mechanism somewhere.
You don’t store much data on your servers other than text, but still it has to be a lot after 20 years. Could be an attack vector as well? Have bots search a bunch of known users or titles at the same time? There has been some sort of on going glitch. It hasn’t been a show stopper for me, but it has been annoying.
