• demo call in 20 mins
• dataset i need to demo with loads fast (4 mins)
• other data takes much longer (up to hours)
• pushing all the data to a typesense server with no data will also take much longer
but ah sg.

08/21/2023, 7:41 PMHmm if a particular collection only takes 4 mins to load at startup, are you able to index just that from scratch in a new Typesense instance?

--num-collections-parallel-load--num-documents-parallel-loadc

decided to just try re-pushing and it should actually be done in time - thanks for the suggestion.
