1st report on db indexing problems

[Geert Jan de Groot <]

This was sent to me; in order to be able to see patterns 
I think it is useful to post this to the list. many thanks
to Arnold for the report; we do our best.

Again: will people who have problems with too large database
index files please step forward? Please give us a chance to
break our database too (the test-version, that is)
