Hello all, I''ve just recently gotten my ActiveRecord models indexed properly in my Rails App. Woohoo! So I''ve started testing some searches. Is there some limit to acts_as_ferret that only allows it to return 10 results? I''m searching for common terms in my data that I _know_ return many results, but I only ever get at most 10 results.
