Configuring search index rebuild

In rare cases, particularly after a version upgrade and depending on your configuration, you may experience long search index rebuild times. In this case, you may wish to adjust the search index rebuild system properties to increase the limit on the amount of resources used, potentially improving performance.

Search index performance can vary greatly depending on the size and number of binary documents and attachments, as well as user activity, in your community. By default, the search index parameters are set to use as few memory and CPU resources as possible during a rebuild. If you experience extremely long search index rebuild times (for example, because your community has created a large amount of content) and you have additional CPU and memory resources to spare, contact Support about adjusting the search index rebuild system properties.
