It is -STRONGLY recommended that you switch to using contrib/tsearch which offers these -features: - -Advantages ----------- -* Actively developed and improved -* Tight integration with OpenFTS (openfts.sourceforge.net) -* Orders of magnitude faster (eg. 300 times faster for two keyword search) -* No extra tables or multi-way joins required -* Select syntax allows easy 'and'ing, 'or'ing and 'not'ing of keywords -* Built-in stemmer with customisable dictionaries (ie. searching for 'jellies' will find 'jelly') -* Stop words automatically ignored -* Supports non-C locales - -Disadvantages -------------- -* Only indexes full words - substring searches on words won't work. - eg. Searching for 'burg' won't find 'burger' - -Due to the deficiencies in this module, it is quite likely that it will be removed from the standard PostgreSQL distribution in the future. - |
