    Lemmatized constituency search. It's not great but it works out more or less. It was chosen because postgres supports it out of the box. Having maintained a solr instance before I do not want to do that again, so this is what you get.

    It works fine. My only complaint is that thread titles don't show up in the search results. It only searches the contents of threads.

    It is snappy as fuck is why I ask. Maybe it's because the site doesn't have a shitload of activity or content to search through though. I'm just impressed with how fucking fast the site is now, when it was gnarly as hell before. Just growing pains, it seems.

    That's because we built this forum on rock and roll.
