RE: Am I doing something fundamentally wrong?

[Mike Kimber <mk...@kana.com>]

Just as a follow up to this issue, I converted a simple MR view from JavaScript to Erlang, which brought the View Rebuild time down from approx 8 Hours to 25 minutes. 

Looking at "top" and "mpstat" it seems to use multiple cores/CPU's (although vmstat suggest it doesn't, which is confusing) 

A good tutorial on Erlang can be found at http://learnyousomeerlang.com/introduction#about-this-tutorial should anyone else have the need!

Thanks 

Mike

Sure, CouchDB is a _great_ document store. I once heard a nice sentence: if
god used a database, it would be CouchDB :-)
