The cached backlinks could be + updated by only updating backlinks from changed pages. + (Saved time is less than 1/10th of a second for docwiki.) + +* It may allow attacking [[bugs/bestlink_change_update_issue]], + since that seems to need a copy of the old backlinks. + Actually, just the next change will probably solve that: + +* It should allow removing the `%oldlink_targets`, `%backlinkchanged`, + and `%linkchangers` calculation code. Instead, just generate + a record of which pages' backlinks have changed when updating + the backlinks, and then rebuild those pages. + +Proposal: + +* Store a page's backlinks in the index, same as everything else. + +* Do *something* to generate or store the `%brokenlinks` data. + This is currently generated when calculating backlinks, and + is only used by the brokenlinks plugin. It's not the right + "shape" to be stored in the index, but could be changed around + to fit. |
