gollark: As well as zlib-compressed page content, domain metadata, robots.txt, search history, and an index of all links, it has to store an "inverted index" mapping tokens to pages.
gollark: To efficiently search it needs to be kind of inefficient in storage space use.
gollark: esolangs.org, osmarks.tk, some other one, http.cat.
gollark: And the inverted index now has 63432 items.
