Hi, Does any have experience scaling full text search in RoR? Right now our project is running a simple setup with ferret and acts_as_ferret. We are thinking about deploying a feature that would send 50x more search requests. So we probably have to rethink our solution. How do services like search.twitter.com (the former Summize) use? Or in what direction should I look? -- Thanks, M.
