Hugo, Note that I wasn't speaking about searching.
Correct about MSSQL, in either case, both solutions require that the database be indexed with some degree of frequency, the amount of that freqency is dependent upon your need for accuracy in real time. However, Verity will be creating load on both the database server it is indexing and the coldfusion server it resides on. Whether this is better overall than the MSSQL indexing, will depend on a number of factors regarding a specific environment. - Calvin ----- Original Message ----- From: "Hugo Ahlenius" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, June 30, 2003 6:52 AM Subject: RE: UDF for MSSQL full-text searches > It is not the search that is the major load, it is the indexing.
