 We have updates to the indexes attached to CDBI triggers, and it is
 extremely effective. Obviously this approach wouldn't work with multiple
 servers but there are ways of solving that.

 Kino is very clearly documented, and fast. We have about 8 assorted indexes,
 and just iterate through the lot, bringing back all hits found. It's still
 as close to instantaneous as makes no odds, and much easier than
 constructing DB searches.

It would be nice if the book tells us how to work with heavy loaded
projects. Very cool that will be yet another book on Catalyst!

It is regrettable that so far there is no translation into Russian of
a book on Catalyst. At the same time as there is a lot of Russian
books on RoR.

 i can't wait to read the catalyst book.  one of the great selling points
 of the framework (to management types) is the idea that any programmer
 off the street could come in and hit the ground running in a catalyst
 shop ... having a second book helps further that notion significantly.

 Quick! Write down what you did! :)

Thanks for all the calls to share this; let me think about how
to do this.

I was using Sphinx Search, which is superfast and powerful and
not all that well documented; at least, the docs sort of
assume that you know what you're doing, so it was hard for me
to work around. (I've found this to be the case with other
search engines, as well--even if there are Perl bindings on
CPAN, they're not detailed about how to actually use the damn
thing.) (Sphinx is also covered in an appendix of the new
High-Performance MySQL book from O'Reilly, but with a similar
treatment--lots of details about why you should use it if you
have a 2G table with 10M hits/day and need such-and-such
grouping queries, but nothing about how to actually integrate
it into an app.)

I'm now using it in two apps, but I'm not sure that the way
I'm using it is going to be of broader relevance, esp. to
people who do have a good idea of what they're doing. Let me
look things over, and I'll wiki it if I think there's really
something useful.

Jesse
