Hi I'm just trying out MonetDB and I have a performance question. I'm running the software on an 2.6GHz 32-bit XP box with 1GB RAM. I have created a small collection of 480 documents, approx. 153MB. Using the console client I run the following query: for $p in collection("papers")//p where contains($p, 'wind farm') return($p) Enabling the timer I see that the query time is 29675 msec. In other words, way too slow to be useful. Clearly there is something fundamentally wrong here. Any pointers? -- Roy Walter
