I don't think it's the actual intersection that kills, but the downloading and json parsing of what would be megabytes of data (just the docids alone
for 200k docs would be quite a few mb).

yeah that is a good point. it's about 1.7 mb per 100k of json ids. if the 'client' were actually like a rails instance running on the same box or subnet as the db i guess that could work out, but otherwise it's a pretty tough sell. i wonder about doing something creative with indexing both an attribute and an id and them limiting by start/endkey and docid.... sure seems like this should be solvable.

cheers.
