A note on searchCrystal's speed/performance
by searchCrystal July 19, 2007 7:01 AM PDT
Thank you for reviewing searchCrystal and embedding a crystal on the page :)
searchCrystal performance depends on which specific engines are compared. Web engines return results the fastest, whereas some blog or tagging engines can take up to 20 seconds to respond (especially if advanced search functions are used).
Of course, we are continuously working on improving searchCrystal's performance to minimize load and processing times.
searchCrystal is an experimental service and any feedback on how to improve it would be very welcome: feedback@searchcrystal.com.

For those who want more "search power", please check out our full version, which is free and lets you compare up to 500 results, add comments and share and compare saved crystals with your friends.
You can also compare RSS feeds of your choice, where related items are grouped using clustering techniques, or create crystals of your Flickr images.
