We realize that this search is not the answer for larger forums and that is why it is unsupported. We don't want to encourage users to enable this in hopes it will solve all of their problems. It is simply a test to show that we can return the same results that we would return when using our postindex. If you compare the results with fulltext turned on and off, you will see they are very close. You should also compare the search results of any hacks that are perceived to be very fast to this. I'm confident that you will find that those results may very greatly as some things must be sacrificed in order to achieve speed.

This is where I have an ambitious plan to create a dynamic search system that can learn what the bad things to search for are and use less intensive queries to return less than perfect results.
