I have a 1.7GB index with 440818 documents. Queries that take 0.23846 seconds on my MacBook pro take an indefinite period of time on a Fedora Core 4 EC2 instance. Five minutes and counting...I''m using Ferret 0.11.3. I don''t see any errors in the logs. Has anyone ever seen anything like this?

I''ve successfully installed ferret and acts_as_ferret and have no problem with utf-8 for accented characters. It returns correct results fot e.g. fran?ais. My problem is with non latin characters (Persian indeed). I have tested different locales with no success both on Debian and Mac. Any idea? (ferret 0.11.4, acts_as_ferret 0.4.0, rails 1.1.6) -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

"nl" selects the dutch stemming algorithm, "no" selects the norwegian (as one would expect). there''s no inconsistency, which the documentation would suggest (using "dut" and "nld" for dutch stemming, "nl" or "no" for norwegian). this is on ferret 0.11.4 at least, i didn''t check earlier versions. phillip -- Posted
