Ferret search too slow, question

Rails
1

Hi,

So we are using Ferret for search. We’re finding that it is spending ~1
second in Ferret to retrieve something. Are there any configuration
issues that we should be aware about. We barely have any data in our
index and we’ve rebuilt it several times without any luck. Any help
would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Sam

Are you running the C version of ferret? There is a pure ruby
implementation, which is orders of magnitude slower than the c
implementation. From version 0.10 onwards, the c extension is also
available
on windows - try upgrading ferret to the latest version.

Cheers,

Hi Sam,

What version of Ferret are you using? How many documents? What query
is taking 1 second to return.

Ferret is usually a lot faster than this.
