Hi there,
Our search index is getting pretty slow when searching for common words. A
plain search that only has a few hits will complete in 3-4 milliseconds,
while a search for "the" might take 500ms. On the latter, ThinkingSphinx
reports:
>> ThinkingSphinx::Search.search('the', limit: 1)
Sphinx Query (477.0ms) the
Sphinx Found 511222 results
(Yes, I guess I ought to have a stop word file to strip out "the", "a",
etc. Let's ignore that for now)
For this particular search I don't care too much about the 511222 results,
I only want a few. And I don't care too much about the order they're
returned in. Is there a better/faster way of doing this?
