I am using thinking_sphinx in Rails. As far as I know, Sphinx is used for full text search. Let's say I have these queries:
keyword
country
sort order
I use Sphinx for all the search above. However, when I am querying without keyword
, but just country
and sort order
only, is it a better to use just normal query in MySQL instead of using Sphinx?
In other words, should Sphinx be used only when keyword
is searched?
Looking at overall performance and speed.
