Hey Rey, Remember that Verity is not searching against your DB on each call, this is aready done as part of your indexing into a collection (usually out of hours).
If the results are taking an age to appear it is no doubt a result of the actual ColdFusion code to display them, I would look at these pages before looking at Verity or a replacement as the VDK you get with ColdFusion saves you a lot of time and effort which otherwise you would have to code, say in Lucene. I am currently going through a ColdFusion integration with FAST ESP so I know how much effort it required over and above a simple cfsearch call.

I've been using the built-in Verity search engine to index a query of products and build a collection accordingly. But when searching for a product, its just way too slow for the amount of results that it pulls back. The same engine, when pulling back a collection of static page info on another site, is substantially quicker. So, I'm wondering if there's a way to speed up the collection results or if there's a better alternative for DB-intensive search capabilities. Any advice would be appreciated.
