dovecot full text search

[Wojciech Puchar]

what FTP module should i use instead of squat that is probably no longer 
supported or no longer at all?

i want to upgrade my dovecot installation. it currently uses squat but i 
found it often crashes on FTS on large mailboxes.

i found "xapian" addon for dovecot but while it works excellent AFTER 
database is created, i found it need like 20 or so minutes to index less 
than 10GB of mails and while doing this - generate many tens of 
megabytes/s constant write traffic on it's database files.

Excellent way of killing SSD.

something must be broken.

my config is

plugin {
         plugin = fts fts_xapian

         fts = xapian
         fts_xapian = partial=2 full=20 verbose=0

         fts_autoindex = yes
         fts_enforced = yes

#       fts_autoindex_exclude = \Junk
#       fts_autoindex_exclude2 = \Trash
}


any ideas?
