Yup. Does the live setup store it as 'bla=bla'? >> Yes, it isn't MySQL, don't worry, the machine has 8GB of memory and only >> costed 390 euro.

You check if the specific pair is in the database, and update it with the suggestion. A spell checker doesn't need to run on an online database. My question was if it was acceptable to run *such* a service, or that people have objections to a system that automatically fix typo's.
