What change did you make, if you don't mind me asking?


The search function was unbelievably inefficient and taxing the server.

That doesn't surprise me in the least :)

I admin a forum with ~5M posts; search is always a big drag.

I'm sorry that I made a seperate "thank you" post, I didn't see this one here or I would have used it.

Thanks again! : )
