Hi all,

I saw the recent posts about Search Functionality and how some of you, Adrian 
included, are using it for searching.  I'd like your opinion on whether 
Swish-e would make sense for searching/indexing 12 varchar(<=255) fields in a 
large table (~10M records).

The search is currently taking a 'long time' (about 28 seconds from the user's 
perspective) using a custom pager and django's query api.  Each 'page' 
requires two long queries on the db, one to get the records for the page 
(about 13s) and another to get the count of records (about 12s).

I've not used Swish-e before.  Is there any chance it would be faster than the 
straight db search we are doing now?

Thanks in advance,

Eric.
