right now it works for me, but it is true that wikia has some problems with
their current mysql-based search. They have a new implementation based on
lucene, but due to technical/ressources issues it is not online yet. Another
problem I have with search is searching for 3-letter words (XML, PHP) gives no
results ...

I've contacted them, and got the response that they have ordered new equipment
for $50k recently, so there will be some movement on these topics (i count
performance problems into that too)

Sebastian.
