At the risk of sounding redundant, I'll point out again that if we simply fixed document retrieval to be faster for the normal QueryComponent, then this would be moot (and everyone would get faster doc retrieval). I'm sympathetic to the fact that it is more work of course. Hopefully no one disagrees that "/select" document retrieval should be as fast as "/export" document retrieval though? -Yonik --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
