Wow, thanks chromatic. Back when I started this project a long time ago MySQL did not have anything like that -- this looks to be very cool. Yeah inverted indexes make my head ache, that is why i did not use them when i first wrote this -- although for the first 12 months this was in production the search times were not a factor but the amount of additions to the index now are starting to be 6 or 7 times as large as the original spec called for -- hence the issue.
