Improve getting recent files performance

[CarlSchwan]

Only look for files modified in the last 2 weeks

👍

Reasonable trade-off

After all it says recent and not most recent 😉

@CarlSchwan so what are the changes besides only looking at files changed in the last two weeks, would 'changed' also include 'created' and is it now limited to the users storage or just the 2 weeks time frame?

Just to check with @karlitschek and @jancborchardt if it is feasible to limit recent files search in this way that it at least works again on larger instances and enables the recommendation app to work again plus in both scenarios not nuke large installations.

Sorry. I'm too stupid :-) What does this mean exactly? Is this the recent files view in the files app only? Or for other places too?

The only change is the 2 weeks time frame. Group folders are included and changed should include created - haven't tested that though.

This will hopefully reduce the database load. On one instance I investigated the main load was sorting the results by timestamp to then pick the 7 most recent. The list of files to sort should be much smaller if only the ones changed in the last two weeks are included... whether it's enough to enable the app again on large instances remains to be seen.

Basically all places that query for recent files. Definitely in the recommendations app.

So should I merge it? :p

Yes, fine by Frank and me behavior-wise

I think it's cool! I like it!!

Will this also speed up getting recent files in the Android app ?

I am not aware of the app having a recent files view.

Oh, sorry, I've just seen that I've confused it with the favourites (which, in the Android application, are quite long to display). Forget about my message.
