There was as bug where if the input of ResultValuator.normalize() was negative, it was truncated to zero. This meant that "bad" results always rank the same. The penalty factor "overallPart" was moved outside of the function and was re-weighted to accomplish a better normalization.
Some of the weights were also re-adjusted based on what appears to produce better results. Needs evaluation.
This is for filtering results on how many times the term appears on the domain. The intent is to be beneficial in creating e.g. a domain search feature. It's also very helpful when tracking down spammy domains.
* Added new (optional) model file in $WMSA_HOME/data/atags.parquet
* Converter gets a component for creating a projection of its domains onto the full atags parquet file
* New WordFlag ExternalLink
* These terms are also for now flagged as title words
* Fixed a bug where Title words aliased with UrlDomain words
* Fixed a bug in the encyclopedia sideloader that gave everything too high topology ranking
This was caused by a bug in the binary search algorithm causing it to sometimes return positive values when encoding a search miss.
It was also necessary to get rid of the vestiges of the old LongArray and IntArray classes to make this fix doable.
This turned out to be very difficult to do in small isolated steps.
* Design overhaul of the control gui using bootstrap
* Move the actors out of control-service into to a new executor-service, that can be run on multiple nodes
* Add node-affinity to message queue
* (index-reverse) Parallel construction of the reverse indexes.
* (array) Remove wasteful calculation of numDistinct before merging two sorted arrays.
* (index-reverse) Force changes to disk on close, reduce logging.
* (index-reverse) Clean up merging process and add back logging
* (run) Add a conservative default for INDEX_CONSTRUCTION_PROCESS_OPTS's parallelism as it eats a lot of RAM
* (index-reverse) Better logging during processing
* (array) 2GB+ compatible write() function
* (array) 2GB+ compatible write() function
* (index-reverse) We are logging like Bolsonaro and I will not have it.
* (reverse-index) Self-diagnostics
* (btree) Fix bug in btree reader to do with large data sizes
Further de-ByteBuffer:ing of these classes is to be done, but this is the smallest most urgently needed benefit.
This commit is a WIP but in a fully working state, pushing due to the importance of the changes to offer lifecycle control over mmaps.
... also move some common configuration into the root build.gradle-file.
Support for JDK21 in lombok is a bit sketchy at the moment, but it seems to work. This upgrade is kind of important as the new index construction really benefits from Arena based lifecycle control over off-heap memory.
* Reduce memory churn in LoaderIndexJournalWriter, fix bug with keyword mappings as well
* Remove remains of OldDomains
* Ensure LOADER_PROCESS_OPTS gets fed to the processes
* LinkdbStatusWriter won't execute batch after each added item post 100 items
This is a system-wide change. The index used to have a lexicon, mapping words to wordIds using a large in-memory hash table. This made index-construction easier, but it
also added a fairly significant RAM penalty to both the index service and the loader.
The new design moves to 64 bit word identifiers calculated using the murmur hash of the keyword, and an index construction based on merging smaller indices.
It also became necessary half-way through to upgrade guice as its error reporting wasn't *quite* compatible with JDK20.
This provides a much cleaner separation of concerns, and makes it possible to get rid of a lot of the gunkier parts of the index service. It will also permit lowering the Xmx on the index service a fair bit, so we can get CompressedOOps again :D
Deprecate the LoadUrl instruction entirely. We no longer need to be told upfront about which URLs to expect, as IDs are generated from the domain id and document ordinal.
For now, we no longer store new URLs in different domains. We need to re-implement this somehow, probably in a different job or a as a different output.
