Since the sideloaders don't populate the documents list in ProcessedDomain to keep the memory footprint manageable, the code that estimates knownUrls etc. will set them to zero, which has negative effects on their ranking. This change will populate them with a bullshit value within a sane ballpark, ensuring that these domains show up in the rankings. |

Processes
1. Crawl Process
The crawling-process fetches website contents and saves them as compressed JSON models described in crawling-model.
The operation is specified by a crawl specification, which can be created in the control GUI.
2. Converting Process
The converting-process reads crawl data from the crawling step and processes them, extracting keywords and metadata and saves them as parquet files described in processed-data.
3. Loading Process
The loading-process reads the processed data.
It has creates an index journal, a link database, and loads domains and domain-links into the MariaDB database.
4. Index Construction Process
The index-construction-process constructs indices from the data generated by the loader.
Overview
Schematically the crawling and loading process looks like this:
