LinkDB usages

Hi,

 I'm wondering if LinkDB has additional uses in addition to increasing the rate of a page if many links are directed to it.

 In fact, I don't need LinkDB in my Nutch then I removed this treatment from my loop.

 But, if LinkDB does other important things, maybe I shouldn't ignore this phase.

 What do you think ?

 Thanks.

There is a patch adding #inlinks to the Solr index. Check Jira for Anchor 
indexing plugin.

Yes, indexing anchor is useful because anchors usually contain good search 
terms. Using anchors for searching can help improve relevance.
