Efficient Searching (fwd)

[Neil Hunter <neil.hunter@theplanet.net>]

Hi all,
When issuing a base-scope search, what is the most efficient filter to use? How
much of the filter gets checked *if* the target object of the base search
exists?

Also, does anyone know of any highly optimised back-ends for the case where a
given attribute value can be mapped to one, and only one, entity?

Cheers,
  Neil
