optimize method Leave feedback

Minimizes the number of index segments by merging them, improving search performance.

An index optimization operation reduces the number of segments in an index, thereby increasing search performance. Each indexing operation adds at least one new segment, so indexes that receive frequent document additions should be optimized periodically.

def optimize(self):
    ...

from groupdocs.search import Index

# Create or open an index
index = Index("./index")

# Add documents to the index (each call creates at least one new segment)
index.add("./documents")

# Re-index only documents changed since the last add/update
index.update()

# Merge segments for faster subsequent searches
index.optimize()
