[MarkLogic Dev General] Xdmp Spawn

Yes I tried doing an xdmp:invoke but than my delay shifts to insertion, when I do a dummy call to my main file after the insertion of a new word in dictionary with xdmp:invoke().

As Jason pointed out earlier, you can do an xdmp:invoke instead of an xdmp:spawn.   Invoke is syncrounous.

For example, you can do something like the following pseudo-code:

update-dictionary();
xdmp:invoke("module-that-runs dictionary-query-to-prime-the-cache.xqy")

Yes I guess you were write after inserting if I wait for a second and then fire my query than it works. But than again it want something that works immediately.Is there anything that can be done?

A spawned task will start some time after you spawn it, and will finish some time later proportional to how much work it has to do.  Sounds like your spawn hasn't run to completion by the time you're doing your user query test.

You can use invoke if you want it to start right away and block til completed.

Or you can not worry about priming the pump.  On a production site with constant user load the priming you do won't matter since a user will be hitting the dictionary anyway.

After calling my insert file in which I am calling the spawn function I fire my search query.

How do you know the spawn work is finished before you do your user query test?

That is what I am not getting it was working fine for me last week. In the spwan call I increased the number of dictionaries from 5 to 9 and it gave me the problem.

I'm not an expert on this, but at midnight you get who's online.  :)

Let's assume it takes 4-5 seconds to process (i.e. cache) a newly modified dictionary.

Let's also assume MarkLogic is lazy about processing new dictionaries until they're first used.

What you were doing before was "priming the pump" by using the dictionary in the spawn so it'd be processed before the first real user needed it.

Now you're saying it's still slow on the first request even after the spawn() completes?  That seems unlikely.

Hi,

We are using spell:suggest and the spell:suggest-detailed api's for fetching the correct words from a custom spell dictionary. Now if we update the spell dictionary and then fire the query, it takes a long time to return the results for the first hit. Again if we fire the same query the time taken to return back the results is considerably reduced. To fix the issue I asynchronously called my xquery file using Xdmp:Spawn() after the insertion. It was working fine for me till I used a limited number of dictionaries in my spawn call. But now I had to include some more dictionaries and it is again taking around 4-5 seconds to fetch after a new word is inserted in the dictionary. Is there any solution to the problem?

Thanks
