SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

12       xapian-compact - Compact a database, or merge and compact several
13

OPTIONS

15       -b, --blocksize=B
16              Set  the  blocksize in bytes (e.g. 4096) or K (e.g. 4K) (must be
17              between 2K and 64K and a power of 2, default 8K)
18
19       -n, --no-full
20              Disable full compaction
21
22       -F, --fuller
23              Enable fuller compaction (not recommended if you plan to  update
24              the compacted database)
25
26       -m, --multipass
27              If  merging more than 3 databases, merge the postlists in multi‐
28              ple passes (which is generally faster  but  requires  more  disk
29              space for temporary files)
30
31       --no-renumber
32              Preserve  the  numbering of document ids (useful if you have ex‐
33              ternal references to them, or have set them to match unique  ids
34              from  an  external  source).  Currently this option is only sup‐
35              ported when merging databases if they have  disjoint  ranges  of
36              used document ids
37
38       -s, --single-file
39              Produce a single file database (not supported for chert)
40
41       --help display this help and exit
42
43       --version
44              output version information and exit
