Since your first post the days seemed a bit lighter ;).

Best,

I have already identified a potential competitve advantage over google. Currently they store all their site data in custom databases. As everyone knows, database access is notoriously slow. So if the metadata was moved into ram (the "application" scope) onApplicationStart, you would be able to perform deeper search functions in the same amount of time - getting you better results. Nowadays, you could install several terabytes of ram on each machine (64-bit computing) - so space shouldn't be an issue. The only thing is that onApplicationStart will take several hours to load the data into ram - but the servers will be clustered so that should only happen once.

So no-one knows of any good CFCs to do google-style searching? The important thing is that they are open source so that I can improve upon them. Are CFCs even the best way to go? I don't mind doing it through TAGs or anything else. I was just told that CFCs were the best.

Also, is it worth it to get CF Enterprise edition for this or is Standard ok?
