Hi Duncan,
Didn't you post the same question yesterday? Perhaps nobody answered
because your question is unanswerable.
sorry, I got a email that my message was waiting for approval and when I
look at the forum I didn't see my message and this is why I sent it
again and this time I did check that the format of my message was text
only. Sorry for the noise.
You need to describe what the strings are like and what the patterns
are like if you want advice on speeding things up.
my strings are 1-gram up to 5-grams (sequence of 1 work up to 5 words)
and I am searching for the frequency in my DF of the strings starting
with a sequence of few words.
I guess these days it is standard to use DF with millions of entries so
I was wondering how people are doing that in the faster way.
Thanks
Cheers
Fabien
