I wrote awhile ago that I thought it was usually best to use search:search for
full text searching, cts:search for node selection out of the db, and XPath for
node selection within a document. I just ran into a situation that doing the
same query for nodes in the DB using cts:search was 6 times faster than using
XPath.
So what is it about cts:search that makes it so fast? I assume that there are
optimizations under the covers, but how is cts:search able to gain from the
optimizations but XPath is not? Just curious.
