Google’s indexing problems roll on - pages fall out daily

Google has a lot of trouble keeping pages in their index these days, and the best part is, it doesn’t appear to be getting any better. We’ve all heard webmasters complain in the past about drops in rankings and the like, but this time the complaints are even more specific. Google is dropping legitimate pages all the time
Big Daddy is though to be the culprit, and it well could be. Apparently Google has rolled out a new infrastructure which changes how Google crawls and indexes pages. One of the main goals of the update was to fix problems they had with indexing duplicate content and to clean up the supplemental index which has been showing erroneous data for years. So far the indexing and SERPs are even choppier than ever.
I’ve seen severe indexing problems since 9/22/2005 when Big Daddy was first mentioned as an un-named update, and the problem is still not solved all these months later. The fact is, I can see the page counts changing again today, so I’ll assume they’re working on it and are close to a resolution. The alternative thought is not worth having.
