about basex server

Hi Everyone If i have a dataset that is 1mb, what kind of computer is required to run the basex server? How about 1gb? I feel like the basex server cannot handle very frequent database query. Sincerely Serena

I got your example working after closing one element in your example document. Still I couldn't reproduce the problem you encountered. Note, however, that you are calling " $query->more() " twice without retrieving the first result. If your problem persists, please try to run your code with the stable version of BaseX (http://files.basex.org/releases/latest/), and give us some more hints.

Serena, this is better than nothing, but I still need more info (at least an input document that allows me to run your query out of the box) to get a clue what might go on.

Hello Everyone When I tried the online basex demo, no mater how frequent I submit the query, i can always get results. However, in my own machine, i started the basex server, and then I use php script to query the server, sometimes, no results are returned. Is there any way to solve this problem? Thanks a lot.

a question about return values and data query
by Lusha Wang 20 Jul '11

20 Jul '11

Hi Everyone I have to questions: 1) Is it possible to return sth formatted string like this: return <Document>{$Document/HasDomain/@id /data()+"%%"+$Document/Time/text()}</Document> So far it shows errors.....I dont know if there are alternatives. 2) I have data like this <Documents> <Document id="doc1"> <Date>yyyy-mm-dd</Date> <HasIP ip="ip1"> <HasDomain domain="domain1"> <HasDomain domain="domain2"> </Document> <Document id="doc1"> <Date>yyyy-mm-dd</Date> <HasIP ip="ip2"> <HasDomain domain="domain1"> <HasDomain domain="domain3"> </Document> </Documents> <IPs> <IP id="ip1"> <data>111.111.111.111</data> </IP> <IP id="ip2"> <data>111.111.111.112</data> </IP> </IPs> <Domains> <Domain id="domain1"> <data>abc.com</data> </Domain> <Domain id="domain2"> <data>edf.com</data> </Domain> <Domain id="domain3"> <data>abc.com</data> </Domain> <Domains> I m trying to get all domains from documents that are within the following time period. for $Document in doc('test')//Document let $datestr := $Document/Date/text() let $date := xs:date($datestr) where $date<=xs:date("2010-05-02") and $date>xs:date("2010-05-01") and $Document/HasDomain return <Document>{$Document/HasDomain, $Document/Time/text()}</Document> However, only the domain ids are returned, I cant make the database return domain data rather than id. Can anyone offer me some suggestions? Thanks a lot. Sincerely Lusha

Re: [basex-talk] bulk-load
by Christian Grün 16 Jul '11

Dear Tomaso, dear Michael, today, I had a closer look into the BaseX routines that are responsible for adding new documents to the database, and I tweaked the update code of our document index to avoid linear costs for adding single documents. You are invited to check out the latest stable snapshot [1] and give us your valuable feedback. There are still some bottlenecks: - the default XML parser takes some time for initialization, which is particularly noticable for small documents. You'll get some performance boost by switching to the internal parser (Command: set intparse; see [2] for details). - as each BaseX database command is atomic, the data is flushed to disk after each update to avoid data loss. You may either specify a directory on disk to add multiple files at once, or choose to insert nodes instead of documents, which will give you better performance. Hope this helps, Christian [1] http://files.basex.org/releases/latest/basex-6.7.1-SNAPSHOT.jar [2] http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Parsers ___________________________ On Mon, Jul 4, 2011 at 8:22 PM, Christian Grün <christian.gruen(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Tomaso, > >> From your answer I suppose there is something slower >> when Add() is called many times, and faster if we use CreateDb. >> Can you explain why the times increase?

how to specify xml-stylesheet when generating xml ?
by Fabrice Etanchaud 15 Jul '11

15 Jul '11

Dear all at BaseX, how can one specify xml-stylesheet (for example in XQuery 3 prolog) ? I would like to add something like <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="linktomystylesheet.xsl"?> between the xml declaration and the generated xml. I did not find any xml-stylesheet option for serialization. BaseX is just wonderful. best regards, Fabrice ETANCHAUD Senior Software Engineer edital Berkenlaan 1 B-1831 Brussels, Belgium <skype:fabrice.etanchaud?call> +32 2 716 32 32 general +32 2 716 32 20 fax fetanchaud(a)edital.com corsearch.com <http://www.corsearch.com/> | edital.com <http://www.edital.com/> Confidentiality Notice: This email and its attachments (if any) contain confidential information of the sender.

Best approach for 10 million+ documents?
by Michael Paddon 14 Jul '11

14 Jul '11

Hi, I'm currently evaluating BaseX for a project. I've read all the online documentation but the underlying storage and indexing mechanisms are still a bit of a mystery to me, so I'm having trouble making optimal decisions in designing a large collection of documents. I have 10 million documents of moderate size. These are intended to be regularly replaced/updated. I have the choice of storing each document individually in a collection, or inserting/updating into a single document. Which approach will generally perform better? In an experiment, I found that after adding a few million documents, adding new documents got really slow. The JVM pegs at 100% CPU so it is doing a lot of work. What's going on here? Indexing? Would increasing the JVM memory help? Can indexing be disabled for bulk loads? Rather than try random things to see what worked, I was hoping to get some insight into how the system stores, indexes and uses resources. Many thanks, Michael
