the index should be rebuilt if you stop your application, delete the
folder as you did, and then start the app again. If that doesn't work,
please try upgrading to the latest version (0.2.2) of the plugin.

hm, are you sure these 9 rows look the same as those created by your
later inserts ? Does loading/saving them in Rails cause them to get
indexed ? Have a look at your development log too see what happens when
doing so, acts_as_ferret logs quite exactly what it is doing.
