Hi guys I know that Solr now has a fast Fuzzy Search capability for levenshtein distances of up to 2, but I would like to use distances of 3 or 4 (up to half the word length if possible).
I have been told it is possible to use an older fuzzy search version called SlowFuzzyQuery but I am not sure how to use it. I realise it will be slow(er) but my database will be reasonably small and I would like to test out the performance to see if it is a feasible option. Is it still part of the Solr code or must I install it separately? Any examples of its usage????? And for distances of 2 or less does it actually perform a fast fuzzy search or must I revert to using the ~ syntax for those faster fuzzy searches? All help appreciated. Michael
