ht://dig crash.

Good day to all of you.

I'm running htdig-3.2.0b5 on an old Sun Ultra-5 station running Solaris 
7 (the website I'm indexing, our intranet, is local to that machine).

I noticed 2 problems with htdig on this machine:

1./ Every few runs, I get the following error message in my logs:

Any idea ?

2./ 3.2.0b5 is awfully slow.

I used to use an earlier version (3.2.0b2 ? -- not sure). That one 
wasn't terribly efficient regarding diskspace usage, but at least it 
could re-index my site in +/- 10 hours. Since I upgraded to 3.2.0b5, the 
disk usage has gone down (which is why I upgraded in the first place), 
but it now takes more than 24 hours to index the same amount of data 
(roughly 4.5 Gb).

Since this machine only has 128 MB RAM (I know !), is it possible that 
htdig creates temp files in /tmp, which, under SunOS is actually the 
swap, and that it causes swap starvation ?

If so, is there a configuration item I can use to ask htdig to use some 
other place than /tmp for this ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

If you need more info, please let me know.

Cheers. Bye.

Ph. A .
