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 folks, This latest release of Ferret has a lot of improvements. There have been substantial improvements to performance. Try it for yourself to see. I won''t be publishing any numbers just yet. 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

Hi, I''m having trouble with ferret and AAF blowing up with a NoMemoryError. Sometimes when I add documents inside my rails app. Ferret starts consuming huge amounts of memory. I''m on a machine with 2GB of memory and it still runs out of memory. Sometimes I''m able to run MyObject.rebuild_index and the memory doesn''t move up at all. However, sometimes it

I''m fairly new to ferret / aaf and finding it much easier to use than HyperEstraier (which I migrated from). However, I am getting a few errors and I need to figure out if they''re problems with my usage of ferret or a bug I should report.

I have found very little information about this problem on the net, so i thought someone here might be able to help me. I am running mac os x 10.4 on a powerbook and have installed ruby 1.8.6 and was trying to get ferret to work, without any success.

I installed with: $ gem install ferret I have a ferret_test.rb file: ----begin--------- require ''rubygems'' require ''ferret'' include Ferret index = Index::Index.new(:path => ''/opt/search-index'')
