Lucene maximum number of buffered documents Number of documents required before the buffered in-memory documents are written into a new segment. 10 documents
Lucene maximum number of merge documents Largest number of documents merged by addDocument(). Small values (for example, less than 10,000) are best for interactive indexing, as this limits the length of pauses while indexing to a few seconds. Larger values are best for batched indexing and speedier searches.
Small values (for example, less than 10,000) are best for interactive indexing. Use 0 for the Lucene default, which is practically infinite.
0 merge documents
Lucene merge factor How often segment indices are merged by addDocument(). With smaller values, less RAM is used while indexing, and searches on unoptimized indices are faster, but indexing speed is slower. With larger values, more RAM is used during indexing, and while searches on unoptimized indices are slower, indexing is faster.
Large values (greater than 10) are best for batch index creation, and smaller values (less than 10) for indices that are interactively maintained.

HTML purifier HTML Purifier is a standards-compliant HTML filter library written in PHP and integrated in Tiki. HTML Purifier will not only remove all malicious code (better known as XSS) with a thoroughly audited, secure yet permissive whitelist, it will also ensure that your documents are standards-compliant. Keep in mind that HTML Purifier is not HTML5 compatible and may rewrite HTML5 syntax and produce unwanted results.
If you use HTML in your wiki page and it gets stripped out or rewritten, make sure your HTML is valid, or de-activate this feature. Keep in mind that HTML Purifier is not HTML5 compatible and may rewrite HTML5 syntax and produce unwanted results.
Enabled
Output should be HTML purified This activates HTML Purifier on wiki content and other outputs, to filter out potential security problems like XSS code. Keep in mind that HTML Purifier is not HTML5 compatible and may rewrite HTML5 syntax, producing unwanted results.
