String support #3

Open codeactual opened 15 years ago

codeactual commented 15 years ago

As noted in the Contributing wiki, string samples aren't well supported in how they're stored or analyzed. A key concern holding this back is the lack of full-text indexes for merge tables.

One starting point might be researching whether Sphinx can help.

Reminder: Although merge tables are going away in 0.12 with MySQL 5.1 partitions, the FT index issue remains.
