The ferret documentation reports that using the option "key" can affect performance of indexing operations. If the option "key" is used when creating a ferret index, is there a performance hit when creating a new document, or is the performance hit only for updated records? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

This check occurs on all documents (new and updated). -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
