gollark: So my search thing seems to be handling the tens of megabytes of slowly downloading esolangs.org data somewhat well, in that queries which don't have any results in it run fine. On the other hand, I didn't add any pagination and it would be quite hard to given how the search algorithm works, so looking for stuff like "the" is slow. And the search algorithm is terrible at looking up specific phrases.
gollark: Just text, formatting and a little metadata (in some insane XML format) - no images, talk pages, user pages, that sort of thing.
gollark: This is without images and whatnot.
gollark: Wikipedia is "only" 15GB compressed, but the inverted index data structure this uses for search is biiiiig.
gollark: My search engine thing (https://search.osmarks.tk/) is now indexing the entire esolangs.org wiki for some reason!
