- seed:plan plans every part of a group's history no range covers (it
started below the lowest known range and left a.b.ath's 13 most recent
months out); seed_ranges.priority orders leases (seed:plan --priority).
- binaries.part_count, kept by the parts insert in the same statement:
claimCompleted compares it instead of counting parts every batch.
- file_keys: 64-bit hashes of all file keys; FileStore.insert asks it
before probing every files partition.
- worker:file stores 100 completed binaries per job with set-based queries.

A batch of a dense range (over ~5,400 files) exceeded Postgres' 65,535
bind parameters per statement, so its post failed with a 500 until the
range was given up.

New rows went into free space scattered through the 9.6 GB heap on the HDD
(left behind by inspection's updates): one random HDD read per insert, and
seed batches took a median 13 s to store. The existing table becomes the
first partition as it is (a CHECK scan, no rewrite; indexes, its foreign
key and the triggers are taken over by the partitioned parent); new
partitions of 4M ids go in the same tablespace and stay in memory while
they fill.
- Every partition has a unique file_key index; FileStore.insert looks keys
up in all partitions first (a key can't be unique across partitions).
- FilePartitions.ensure() (gc:scheduler) keeps two partitions ahead.
- Stats count files from the partitions; seed:node waits ~20 minutes for
the API before giving a range up.

Spotnet (CONCEPT D29):
- Index free.pt fully and import spots with their descriptions, categories
and NZBs; a spot renames its release, since Spotnet names are more
trustworthy than names derived from subjects.
- Find passwords in spot descriptions too, and tell "needs a password we
have" from "needs a password we don't have".
Content inspection:
- List the contents of 7z (.7z.001) archives, SFV sets, nicovideo uploads
and other archive-like files; mark yEncBin .bin containers as encrypted.
- Take real names from yEnc headers for randomly named files, and merge
uploads that were split across posts.
Storage (D31, D32):
- Store segment lists zstd-compressed behind the FileStore accessor.
- group:backfill indexes older headers at low priority and pauses when
the NVMe or HDD part of the database gets too large.
Grouping (D35, D36):
- Lone header segments wait in staged_segments until a second segment of
their file arrives, which drops the per-article junk binaries.
- Counter grouping joins random-subject uploads by poster, [i/M] counter,
part count and day.
Search and maintenance (D33, D34):
- A trigram-indexed search_text column, smaller indexes, estimated stats.
- Passes that clean up nonsense names; weekly index maintenance; GC budgets
per kind.
- Web UI: grey out stale results while a search runs and cancel superseded
requests. Count only up to 1,000 matches for the page, which made filter
clicks take seconds (Newznab keeps the 10,000 cap).
