I have added a recipe for faster searches and categories:
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/FastSearch
This recipe uses find and grep and so may not be very
portable (to windows).
I know that pm and a few others are working on an indexed
mechanism to speed up backlinks (categories), but my
solution is so simple and fast, that I thought I had to
share it. Without it categories and searching is unusable
on my site. I have an old Pentium 200 and over 1000 files.
A typical search will go from around 30 seconds to about 3
seconds now.
In the past I have offered similar solutions to the list to
speed up categories, but this one is even simpler and also
speeds up searches.
Feedback welcome,
-Martin
