Is it possible to let the old search index be available while lucene reindexes.

My collection is quite large and it takes about 11 hours to reindex every time. I update the search index only once per week (at night) but I wonder if it wouldn't be possible to still use the old index during this process?

Just interesting, how large is your collection when it takes 11 hours to re-index?

Mine is 291.73 GB and it takes a few minutes to re-index it from scratch..
Updating the index takes ~45 seconds, just tested it.

My stats:
7,131 artists
2,347 albums
48,842 songs
291.73 GB (~ 4,531 hours)

Must have missed your question.

My stats are:

11,631 artists
19,308 albums
561,621 songs
16031.28 GB (~ 249,037 hours)

All songs are in FLAC on DroboPro (connected by 1Gbps LAN)

Although I only serve about 200 gig atm, having this would make subsonic much more flexible for huge collections.
