Nick,

i am processing text in German. Uppper characters from the iso-8859-1
character set are used and never caused a problem.

You should have a look at your variable settings; make
myisam_sort_buffer_size as large as you can afford and set
myisam_max_extra_sort_file_size and myisam_max_sort_file_size
to a size appropriate for the size of your table. Double check
that you have enough disk space.

In my case I could reduce the time needed to create a fulltext index from
18 hrs to a few minutes.
