Slow down for bulk operations


  • Hi,

    Overall a great product, but I've found one issue that is affecting us.

    We have a process where we remove large numbers of posts and reimport them from a different system.

    Since the rewrite of the indexing system, if I go to the Posts screen in the admin area, select a pages worth (i.e. 20 of them). Then from the "Bulk Actions" move them to the Bin (Trash), it will take a good 20 seconds to finish the operation. With larger posts it can be a lot longer than that.

    Then going to the Bin and Emptying it, will take even longer. From what I can tell from doing some profiling with xdebug, it's calling curl to do a reindex for every save_post. Which seems fair enough.

    To speed things up, I thought we could uncheck the "Auto-index" box in the WP FullText Search Options screen. But unchecking that and saving, or unchecking the "Enable FullText Search" and saving, it still does the curl request and is noticeably slow.

    If I deactivate the plugin, then normal processing times return and the bulk operations resume at normal sub 1 second speeds.

    This is equally true for importing new posts, or creating them with wp cli.

    My work around for the moment, is to deactivate the plugin before I do any bulk delete/creation operations, then do them, then reactivate the plugin, and go to the control panel, then pause and resume indexing and it seems to catch up (usually quite fast!).

    Would it be possible to put some sort of functionality in, where a save_post call doesn't block it's completion until it's been indexed, or a option put into the control panel where you could allow for it to asynchronously index posts rather than intercepting every single post save?

    Also the unchecking of "Auto-index" option, still seems to leave some of the intercepting of post saving enabled!

    Many thanks.

    Rupert

    Hi @ultraman

    Thank you for your message.

    Since you can see results in the Sandbox, the index is fine. No need to rebuild it again. The problem is on the "display results" side.

    With your configuration, the first idea I think is to install the pre-release WPFTS version that contains the latest fix of the Divi Addon for WPFTS. I've sent you the link in private messages.

    Please install it and tell me if it works fine or not.

    In case it still does not work, please tell me which version of Divi Theme you are using, the WPFTS plugin version, and also please explain your search behaviour. Simple try the request like this:

    https://yourdomain.com/?s=<search_phrase>

    And notice if it returns any result.

    Thank you!

    Hi @EpsilonAdmin thanks for your prompt response and sorry for my late response.

    Unfortunately the site owner didn't approved the re-activation of the plugin. But I will use it on other sites soon.

    Thanks for all your efforts!

    Hi @Nick

    Yes, the algorithm thinks the number of words here is more important than the exact phrase... Ideally, if we could justify the relative weight for the phrase matches. Currently, it's too low for your case, but I think if we can double it, this could solve the issue.

    I think to put this parameter to settings in the near future. Thanks!
