screenshot of false "not found" search result
The following search request is unstable :
http://ja.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%E7%89%B9%E5%88%A5%3A%E6%A4%9C%E7%B4%A2&profile=default&search=%E7%A0%B4%E9%82%AA%E9%A1%95%E6%AD%A3%E9%88%94&fulltext=Search
This string is available in one article. Every now and then the search result
is that nothing is found, which is a wrong result.
When the article is found, the result is displayed quite quickly (less than one
second). When it is not found, the server takes a long time (about ten seconds)
to process the request.
Perhaps this is because the servers are too busy. In that case, the search
engine should reply with a "sorry, we can't process your request now, try again
later" error message rather than make the user believe that the searched string
is absent.
