Our indexer currently naively scans the entire file system on each pass. Investigate whether there is a lightweight mechanism we can add to notify the indexer when files or directories change and therefore re-index them more quickly.

I am thinking of something like the RefreshJob in core.resources that maintains a simple queue of resources to update. Duplicate requests are collapsed in the queue. If the server restarted we would just perform a complete index pass.

We are no longer using Apache Solr or an indexer on the Orion server for search.
