I will say though that it''s still about 2-4 times slower than Lucene with the extension installed. There is also some performance improvements in the pure Ruby version if you

I''m currently trying to install the latest version of Ferret (0.10.9) on my Ubuntu Dapper (6.06) system. I have tried the gem, but it does not generate the ferret_ext.so file. Ideally I would prefer to install from the gem, but if source works, I''m fine with that too. I am now trying an install from source, but when I run the command ''$ rake ext'' I get the

Hi! I''m trying to install ferret on windows, so I chose ferret-0.10.9-mswin32.gem from the download page, as it includes a already pre-compiled ferret_ext.so (is that correct?) and I don''t have any C compiler here. The gem installed it correctly, but the test didn''t work. So I called these commands: rake ext ruby setup.rb config ruby setup.rb setup ruby setup.rb

Dave and all, I run a medium RoR app using Ferret and acts_as_ferret. I get a lot of lock errors. Not always but around 5% of all searches (aspecially during peak periods).

I''m running Ferret 0.9.5 on a MacBook Pro (OS X 10.4.7) under Locomotive 2.0.7. I have a problem where Ferret is hanging when I try to add items to the index. It doesn''t happen with every object that''s being indexed, and I''m not sure what the objects in question have in common (they are not all instances of the same ActiveRecord object). The process

Hi, David. I have recently fixed ferret C sources and successfully compile extension with MSVC.Net The problem was that MS compiler is more stricter that GCC and require that all variables were declared before using. There was ~30 such declaration. I have fixed them all. But I am not sure that it works because tests failed with following error both on clean and patched versions. So seems that it

Hello list, I''ve just updated to 0.11.3 and I came upon this problem. When using the highlight function in a rails application I sometimes get the error "Malformed UTF-8 character."

Hi list, We just built our own ferret drb server (mostly because we don''t do an indexing from within rails). The ferret drb server only handles index inserts and some deletes. Usually we make batch inserts were we retrieve a couple of hundred or thousands of documents from a database and then inserts them inte ferret one by one. We call flush every 50th file.

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
