If you think you can do better, please do. Otherwise fuck off.

That's a pretty good idea.  I also wonder what kind of load search puts on the server.  Matt is that something you track?  I'm wondering if a dedicated DB or machine would help with that?

The green stickman has spoken! 

Also, happy birthday a few hours early!

Ahhh, the age-old 'if you can't do better shut up/fuck off' gag. It's always a winner, guaranteed to make the recipient skulk off into the corner, and not make you look like an arrogant prick. True.

Actually, the repeat time is only one of the intermittent problems with search (others being that it occasionally fucks up frames, but then frames are fucked up anyway, so perhaps that doesn't matter).

Okay, how about if you can't offer constructive criticism that is going to help me fix problems, fuck off?

Should be fixed now.

Cheers coding wizard :)
