Hi all, there was a recent thread[1] on rails-deploy about Ferret in which a lot of people complained of problems using it in production.
I've been using Ferret (with DRb) for many months now with no serious issues. I'm assuming the posters know what they're doing so I'm guessing they're just using Ferret in higher-scale environments than me. I spoke to someone in person yesterday who claimed that Ferret over DRb couldn't keep up with their use rate and had been investigating replicating the ferret database between two machines. With all these bad experiences, I'd like to hear about some good experiences. Anyone care to comment? Anyone using it under huge load? Care to provide some numbers and some notes about how you've made it work? John.
