I have this in my model: acts_as_ferret :fields => ['name', 'brand', 'primary_category', 'secondary_category']
Those fields are defined as follows: name varchar(255) brand varchar(255) primary_category varchar(40) secondary_category text The index appears to have hit some sort of equillibrium now (?), with the longest requests taking about 8 seconds, but with the average still being around 4 seconds. The perf on my dev machine is better (averaging around 1.5 secs) but not great, of course it's running in development mode. I'll try it in production mode tonight.
