Well there's only so much we can do for people who are on shared hosting with only FTP and a database at their disposal. We could maybe improve SearchMysql a bit, but that's not really a goal with this project as we'd never use it on WMF sites. Solr, while still an external dependency, at least doesn't require people to build and configure a basically undocumented WMF-specific system to have a sane search. -Chad _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
