How big is the cache? Is it as bad as having a revision library? back when
there were about 60 archives, I tried generating a revision library of
everything. Not only was this not possible (missing archives, older,
corrupt libraries), but it took over 2 hours to run and took 40 gigabytes
of space. These days I have over 160 archives.
I also believe that ViewARCH is written in python. That means I'd have to
run it as a cgi, which in turn would require an exec. As such, I'm holding
out for something written in php because I have a php module for apache.
I'll give ViewARCH credit for one thing: It works good with lynx!
