I have some really good test data to illustrate my point, but don't have the data here with me.

Does the term "precision" have a meaning significantly different when
applied to the indexing of databases than it does in general use?

repeatability, is the degree to which repeated measurements under
unchanged conditions show the same results."

I was not aware that precision was a problem with Zebra, although we have
found, to our great dismay with our recent implementation of Koha, that
relevancy, which I would call accuracy, is. More correctly and
scientifically stated perhaps, relevancy sucks.  Do I incorrectly
associate accuracy with relevancy?

Greg

I have noticed a bug with C4/Search .. such that relevancy isn't
actually being used.
Is your opac live? If you send me a url I can test my theory on your
opac
