Does Zoom support very large sites? What are the practical limits of the size of sites that Zoom can be used with?
We have greatly improved the capability of Zoom to support large sites, and it now utilises less memory than before, making it possible to index much larger sites on your computer. You can always expect reasonable performance (with any of the search option) for up to around ten thousand pages depending on the number of unique words found in your site’s content as well as your web server’s specifications (processor, memory, server load, etc.). For the PHP and ASP versions, there is a technical restriction of 65,500 pages due to performance limitations of the scripting environments used. You can however, surpass this by using the CGI version. The CGI version provides high-performance support for very large sites. It is a binary application so it does not have any of the overhead issues of scripting languages such as PHP, ASP or Perl. The CGI version can support sites containing a million pages or more (again, depending on the content). It would still be limited by the resources available
