[pmwiki-users] Fast Seach Upgrade (was: sorry i english problem with the cookbook : FastSearch)

[Martin Fick]

OK, I have upgraded the Fast Search recipe to work
with the latest pmwiki and have found that it still
provides a significant speedup on my older pentium
200.  A search that would take around 36 seconds now
takes around 6 seconds.
