it looks like typsesense is overloaded after a restart. Trying to load many collections continuously. I would like to clean all and need to plan a fresh collection. Can I simply delete default database location and restart typesense ? DELETE (any other) API not working for hours. replying with "{ "message": "Not Ready or Lagging"}". Hence a clean and fresh start would be helpful as previous collections are not useful anymore for me.

Typesense will need to reindex everything in RAM after the restart. It could take a while. Are writes stuck?

its working king but as per log never getting finished. starting > indexing -> finished and again starting for all the 10/12 collections. Can we change the location of db directory in typesense.ini and restart the server ?

@Koushik Sarkar Are you using Typesense Cloud? If it's looping, this is definately an issue we want to check. About the fresh start, we can manually delete the datadir on the node and it will start a fresh Typesense, but you'll want to confirm the data loss is ok first!

@Alan Martini , I am not using cloud. Its a local server installation. Data loss wont be a factor. As per your suggestion I can assume simply deleting datadir wont be a issue. I can presume steps like, Stop Typesense. Delete data dir Start Typesense. Please confirm.
