That's the Vbulletin only?
Apart from that, the forum is big and we have to mail queries to the host. He can run it directly on the server. It completes there within half an hour or so. I costs us hours and crashes (if it ever completes).

Sigh.
Edit: giving this new implementation a shot. From what I recall: it builds faster than the old DB search. So far, it seems to work ok too. It's reindexing in the background on my productionboard while it's live and used. Searchresults still come in within 2 seconds (which isn't bad at all for us). But we'll see how it works tomorrow.
