Interesting. I didn't know any of that. Doesn't this sharing of PDOMs
between two projects only work if the projects have identical settings
(includes, macros, etc.), though?

I don't think such limitation exists since settings may differ even between individual files in the same PDOM. 

Is there a document somewhere that describes the design of the index?
I would find it very instructive.

I'm not aware of such a document :-(.

Great! I will give it a try.

Thanks for your help!
