Xapian provides an interator-based interface to all search results. So it was natural to make notmuch_messages_t be iterator-based as well. Which we did originally. But we ran into a problem when we added two APIs, (_get_replies and _get_toplevel_messages), that want to return a messages iterator that's *not* based on a Xapian search result. My original compromise was to use notmuch_message_list_t as the basis for all returned messages iterators in the public interface. This had the problem of introducing extra latency at the beginning of a search for messages, (the call would block while iterating over all results from Xapian, converting to a message list). In this commit, we remove that initial conversion and instead provide two alternate implementations of notmuch_messages_t (one on top of a Xapian iterator and one on top of a message list). With this change, I tested a "notmuch search" returning *many* results as previously taking about 7 seconds before results started appearing, and now taking only 2 seconds. |
