# SaveSectionSize

## Name

SaveSectionSize -- defines whether to store section sizes for better relevancy quality

`indexer.conf`

`search.htm`

## Synopsis

SaveSectionSize {yes | no}

## Description

When SaveSectionSize is set to `yes`, indexer stores additional information about section size (messured in number of words) for every document section. Using section sizes makes it possible to generate better score values at search time by taking into account frequency of every search query word in its section.

> Note: SaveSectionSize `yes` is also required for exact section match queries.

Setting SaveSectionSize to `no` makes search index size about `10%` smaller. This slightly improves search performance, but makes search quality worse.

SaveSectionSize must have the same value in `indexer.conf` and `search.htm`.

The default value is `yes`.

SaveSectionSize appeared mnoGoSearch version `3.3.0`. Versions prior to `3.3.0` did not store section sizes.

## Examples
