Schedule Optimize: Auto-Optimise Your Opensolr Index Every 2 to 365 Days

Optimising an index is the kind of maintenance everyone means to do and nobody remembers. Index Tools can now do it on a schedule, and the manual Optimize button has become considerably more informative.

01 Schedule Optimize

Pick any interval from 2 to 365 days and Opensolr runs the optimisation for you with a server-side cron job. A single toggle starts or stops the schedule at any time, and shows the interval currently in force, so the state is readable at a glance rather than something you have to remember setting.

02 The Optimize button now tells you what it knows

Clicking Optimize used to be a leap: you could not tell whether an optimisation was already running, and the only way to find out was to click Check Progress repeatedly.

• It detects a run in progress. If an optimisation is already going, the button shows the current status rather than accidentally starting a second one.
• It shows live index stats. Every click reports segments, index size, document count and deleted documents.
