Oleg,
Thanks for the help on this.
The query I used to return the 508 number is:
SELECT * FROM stat('SELECT vector FROM product') ORDER BY ndoc
desc, word ;
Testing says, the more words I use, the faster the query is. My
original search word, 'oil', appears in 226,357 documents 233,266 times.
As far as distinct words go, 'oil' is middle of the road for
occurences. As it is set up now, the best search time I am getting on
this single word is roughly 22 seconds.
