The type of crawl database to use, in-memory or on-disk.
Default: on-disk
Allowed values: in-memoryon-disk
commitAfterItems - integer
Commit the crawlDB to disk after this many items have been received. A smaller number here will result in a slower crawl because of commits to disk being more frequent; conversely, a larger number here will cause a resumed job after a crash to need to recrawl more records.

This option requires 'Restrict to start-link tree' to be enabled to have any effect.

Modifies the behavior of 'Restrict crawl to start-link tree' to ignore the configured list of prefixes when restricting the crawl. Commonly, 'www.' is ignored so links with the same domain are allowed, whether of the form 'http://host.com' or 'http://www.host.com'. This option requires 'Restrict to start-link tree' to be enabled to have any effect.
Default: "www."

exclusiveMinimum: false
exclusiveMaximum: false
Default: 20000
