Ok, I'm *not* going to rave.

Ok, yes I am.

If you can get an inspector on your MailDB, the following code is sorta
fun:

|di|
di _ DocumentIndex withAdaptor: (SimpleIndexAdaptor new).

(categoriesFile messagesIn: '1Sept-Oct2001') do: [:msgId|
di add: (self getText: msgId)].
"replace with a real category of your own"

di inspect


In a Celeste inspector:

	Time millisecondsToRun: [self filteredMessagesIn: '1Sept-Oct2001']

331! this is a particpant filter on about a thousand messages.

Then in the di inspector:

Time millisecondsToRun: [self anyOf: #(Bijan)]  

0!!!!

This is a *full text search*.

Time millisecondsToRun: [self anyOf: #(From)]  
10


Ok, I know there's some errors in there and I'm *sooo* tired, but this is
very promising.

Scott is way overstating memory use, I think, from an exchange we've had.

This rules.
