I would like to ask if anybody can help me with this query
SELECT count(MATCH(product_text) AGAINST('lorem*' in boolean mode)) AS score FROM table_products WHERE MATCH (text) AGAINST ('lorem*' in boolean mode) limit 0,50000
There is fulltext index on column text. A.m. query return sum of rows as score. What I wont is to count fulltext search results. If the number of results(rows) is higher than 50000, than count-sum 50000 will be returned, otherwise the exact count of of results is returned.
Problem is that it is not fast on table width 1,5 million rows if user try to find for example word "lorem" and this word appears in table f.e. more than 500 000 x.
I tried also
SELECT id,name,product_text,price, MATCH(product_text) AGAINST('lorem*' in boolean mode) AS score FROM table_products WHERE MATCH(product_text) AGAINST('lorem*' in boolean mode) and show_product='1' limit 0,50000
... width php mysql_num_rows
Another problem is that in following query mysql use fulltext index only and sort by another column or by score is than slow
SELECT id,name,product_text,price, MATCH(product_text) AGAINST('lorem*' in boolean mode) AS score FROM table_products WHERE MATCH(product_text) AGAINST('lorem*' in boolean mode) and show_product='1' order by score desc limit 0,50000
resp. (..order by name, order by price)
Is there another better and faster way?
Many thanks for any help.
