I'm running a self-hosted wiki, so unfortunately can't provide a URL. The 
search is performed on the standard [[Special:Search]] page. It may matter that 
we're running the wiki on two servers, using Percona MySQL for data replication 
between the servers. A load balancer sends users to whichever server has the 
fewest active connections.

Could you provide more info - which search you're talking about (URL might 
help, or description of the sequence of actions), which terms, what you're 
getting in different cases? Some search results might depend on your 
preferences or user language selected, so there might be difference, e.g. for 
different logged-in users.

Thanks,
