Hi,
I'm playing with full text searches, that enables you do search very
fast in a db, it replaces the where field like "%xx%" that is VERY slow
on big tables (non indexed search).
It's really a nice feature : immediate result for a search on a 400 000
lines table ! The same search with like %xx% is... more than 30s long
(full parsing of the table) !
The problem is that i think this feature is not ANSI-92, so is mysql
only compatible.
Do you think we should ignore this feature, or become definetly mysql
based product ? (unless it's ansi92, in this case, please say it !)
