I'm running omdb.org .. and we have a lot of indexing requests, acutally
we have a backgroundrb server accepting indexing requests and
queue'ing them... so we're basically using a mechanism similar to
acts_as_ferrets index-server.

but our implementation is based on ferret and has nothing to do with
acts_as_ferret (beside the fact, that Jens write large parts of the
indexing/searching code) ;-)

What i'm experiencing is, that a certain important record is missing
after a few days. You can add casts/crew member to movies on omdb,
and the Job "Director of Photography" is part of the ferret index.. but
for some reason, it's gone after a few days.. and you're no longer able
to select "director of photography" e.g. in such a dialog:

http://www.omdb.org/movie/1832/cast/edit_crew

> Waiting on your answer, and _happy_ to see we're not alone with that,

as i said, i will try to investigate further in that topic.. it's  
about time to
identify a few problems with the ferret indexing..
