firstly 52 forums is quite alot even for a SQL version.

when you say import do you mean from a 3rd party forum or upgraded?

if upaded the indexss need time to work, but if from a 3rd party , it maybe your host, or the number of posts and topics you have.,

Searching will always take a long time as looking through each and every post for words does take along time.

In the next version I'm planning on having a message display telling people to 'please wait' while the search is being carried out, and for larger forums the admin will be able to set the amount of time a user has to wait between seraches so it doen't overload the server and mess with others who are trying to use the forum.

Yes Duval, it works better. We added a new field in the forum table in order to have the id of the last posted message. The home page is a lot faster without searching for the last message of each forum.

Concerning the search we're currently working on optimizing the queries with indexation catalogs. We'll see soon how it works.

Numlosk,
 
I don't have much time to answer, since it is a little complex to explain.
 
But quickly what we did:
- For the home page we added the following fields
(Last_Entry_Message_ID, Last_Entry_Topic_ID, Last_Entry_Date, Last_Entry_User, Last_Entry_User_ID) to tblForum table, in order to have the informations about the last posted message of the forum without browsing the DB.
- For the search we created 3 indexed catalogs (topic, message and user name) that help finding quickly the messages.
 
Hope it'll help,
 
Thithi32
