Dear Swamp, [quote user="SpectateSwamp"]Quit repeating yourself.[/quote] We can really make some progress if you... [quote user="SpectateSwamp"]Answer all the dumb questions...[/quote] ... and ... [quote user="SpectateSwamp"]Show us right from startup.[/quote] You know,...

[quote user="SpectateSwamp"]When I display the last screen of a file I just read the line with no action then the next and next until the end of file and do it a second time. Starting the display right before the end of file. I can't make it read any faster than that.[/quote] See? As I...

[quote user="SpectateSwamp"]Copernic is slow because it tries to read the whole file into memory. Swamp search just scans for matches and keeps a few context lines, if in "c" search mode not "s" matching lines only mode. Plowing along at 20Mb per second. Do the math. You'll...

[quote user="SpectateSwamp"]The wonderful SSDS search will show it to you in less than a second.[/quote] No, the "wonderful" SSDS will probably take 1 minute and 25 seconds, which is 5 times longer than Copernic. You are still providing wrong numbers, helloooo!

[quote user="SpectateSwamp"]Your search finds the context so slowly it's almost useless ( 19 Seconds) .[/quote] You don't get it, do you? READ THIS: I'll type slowly, maybe you'll get it if I adjust my typing speed to your reading capabilities. When. You. Have. Many. Small....

[quote user="SpectateSwamp"]Then the swamp search. " .6 " seconds.[/quote] Ok, so Copernic won, because you need to add the time it takes SSDS to read the text file as well. As you said before, this would be another 1 minute and 20 seconds, so SSDS takes all in all 1 minute and 20...

[quote user="SpectateSwamp"]While some of you are busy dreaming up more stupid search tests. 500 files here and there. SSDS has been quietly destroying search giants and myths.[/quote] You are an asshole. We are giving you the chance of proving your point and you don't even get it. You...

[quote user="rc_pinchey"] [quote user="spenk"] [quote user="tdittmar"]You may do a comparison. Take 500 random text files, all about 1KB in size. Start Copernic indexing on them and at the same time start to merge them manually for SSDS. Then tell us who was quicker. Note...

[quote user="SpectateSwamp"]It took about 40 seconds for the first part and about the same for the 2nd so a minute and 20 seconds for a very huge text file.[/quote] Well that's great ! More than one minute to search an 800MB file?? I bet - I BET - it could search it faster using the Visual...
