This is great discussion - thanks for explaining some of the limits, Doug.
I always wonder how this sort of email can turn into useful documentation.

Is performance linear in the number of documents? I would naively
think it would be linear in the number of terms. Also, how does
document size change things? Is searching 1 million 100k documents
twice as fast as 1 million 200k documents?
