On the other hand, if the views are re-indexed independently, then each =
task is reading the documents out of the database. Whereas if the views =
are in the same design document, the documents only get read once and =
then passed to each view=92s map function. I would have thought the =
latter would be faster, but it probably depends on details of the view =
engine that I don=92t know about.
