It will make things slower to load, but it should be a once-off hit,  
not every search.

If running it after_initialize does the trick, that's great to know. I  
wonder if 2.2.2 has changed things, I will have to investigate,  
because I know I put in a fix for 2.2.0 a while ago.

Good to know things are working now though.
