I have got my database in Mysql. I used ferret to index a table with 10 million rows. On limiting the selection of data to 1000 initial retrieval, it takes 200 seconds but for the whole table it took more than four hours and after which i had to close my indexing application. I used the StandardAnalyser for it. There is no problem from the database side as retrieval of all the data in the table

I''m making a simple business directory search and I want to boost the relevance of the ''name'' field over the ''address'' field - both stored in the same document in the same index.

Hi all, the current acts_as_ferret trunk is now ported to Ferret 0.10. Get it while it''s hot at svn://projects.jkraemer.net/acts_as_ferret/trunk/plugin Nearly everything works, besides this: - all queries are ORed (no way to tell the QueryParser to build AND queries by default) - more_like_this is broken I''m working with Dave to fix these things soon.

I''m using acts_as_ferret and have indexed a model with acts_as_ferret :fields => [:name, :ascii_name, :alt_names], :single_index => true. Now in the index directory more than 95.000 files are generated! The number of tuples I''m indexing is approx. 86.000. I can''t remember this from earlier ferret/acts_as_ferret versions where I''ve indexed millions of

Hi there, I''m working with some legacy data where customer phone numbers are stored with hyphens between the area code, exchange, and number (e.g. 555-555-5555). Is this the best way to store a phone number? Perhaps not, but it''s the way they were being stored, so I have to work with this format. Right, so when I save a record the log tells me acts_as_ferret indexed the

I would like to give the 0.9.0 version of Ferret a try on my application hosted on TextDrive. I am currently running on the 0.3.2 version there. Does anyone have any tips on installing it locally there? I know just enough about Ruby gems to get by... but I am thinking it could be as easy as passing a -i flag to specify the install location for ferret. Then, the only thing I am not sure about

I am using Ferret and acts_as_ferret, as my search back-end for my Rails project. I have a question about using acts_as_ferret on a main table that is linked to other tables by foreign keys.

If I include a stop word, as in ''auditor of state'', then I get no results. I''d prefer not to set stop words to nil and index everything. The solution, that I have yet to attempt, is to use

I have a site with two indexes. Index A is created offline by RDig and queried from the web via RDig (specifically, RDig.searcher.search). Index B is managed by AAF with :remote => true. Simple enough. However, I need to query both indexes from RDig. Usually this is ok, as I modified RDig to accept an array of search_paths with an element for index A and index B. However, when Index
