In the meantime, I had imagined that, although clumsy, federated search could be used for this purpose - posting the new documents to a group of servers ('latest updates servers') with v limited amount of documents with v. fast "reload / refresh" times, and sending them again (on a work queue, possibly), to the 'core servers'. Regularly cleaning the 'latest updates servers' of the already posted documents to 'core servers' would keep them lean... of course, this approach sucks compared to a proper solution like what James is suggesting :) B _________________________ {Beto|Norberto|Numard} Meijome "Ugly programs are like ugly suspension bridges: they're much more liable to collapse than pretty ones, because the way humans (especially engineer-humans) perceive beauty is intimately related to our ability to process and understand complexity.
