I've never tried the feature on production, as I stated I've been using it on SDK, for a long while now Didn't try the bolding feature, wonder how it does the actual bolding and how it can be of any use, since searchable stuff is generally seperate from actual stuff and a manual bolding seems easier, if necessary, off topic
Is 3+ seconds on production? If so, it indeed sounds extreme, however 3 seconds is better than nothing, since my search requests are from ajax, 3+ seconds wouldn't be so irritating (in comparison, overhead of an external search service might be closer to 3 seconds too, or at least ~500ms) *And the reason I think it's beyond-awesome* In theory it works, it fills an empty spot, there are no appengine alternatives to it, the search is satisfactory Properties are great, syntax is easy and satisfactory, Document logic is simple and well-thought, imo The query logic is similar to db/ndb, I'm using it the same way I'm using ndb queries, the cursor system is similar, same handlers are responding to ndb and search queries When I first started using search, deep inside I hoped that it isn't as awesome as it seems, and it isn't, since it's obviously not scalable, as it's limited, otherwise it might even beat datastore in terms of indexing/querying + The ranking system is great, don't remember how I utilized it, however my search results appear by their ndb importance metric Thinking about it right now, the beyond is an overkill, but it is awesome, *hoping the limitations disappear really soon* On Saturday, September 7, 2013 12:31:49 PM UTC+3, jon wrote: > > > however the search index size limitation will prevent any decent use-case >> of this *beyond-awesome feature* >> > > May I ask why you think this is an awesome feature?
