I have a Sphinx indexed form with 2 million posts. Indexing takes mess than
2 minutes. Is that considered slow? I use full rebuild of the index even 10
minutes. Incremental reindexing is much faster but crashes from time to
time. Still I do not consider 2 minutes to be slow. There are much slower
insexing search engines around.

I chose Sphinx exactly because of its indexing and search speed. Docs say
that indexing is slow but I came from search engines that used hours to
index my forums. 2 minutes of Sphinx indexing is just nothing compared to
others.
