[jira] Commented: (COUCHDB-736) stale-ok view queries can return
inconsistent partial results
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-736?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12856982#action_12856982 ]
Adam Kocoloski commented on COUCHDB-736:
----------------------------------------
We'll need to make sure to save this partial_group to disk somehow. We can't go back to the old way of requiring a (potentially huge) first pass at indexing to complete successfully before we save durable checkpoints.

> Key: COUCHDB-736
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-736
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.11
> Reporter: Chris Anderson
>
> since r796805 requests to views with the stale=ok option have returned partially computed index results. This changed the semantics of views. This ticket is about maintaining the old semantics.
> This should be changed so stale=ok only returns what would be returned by a normal view request. stale=partial would be an OK name for an option to provide the current behavior.
> The best way to fix this would be to store the NewGroup sent on the partial_update cast in #group_state.partial_group instead of #group_state.group
> This will also eliminate the (rare) changes of serving inconsistent results with a regular view query.
