Question - I have done some reading on this plugin and how it performs
full
text searches. Can it be used and if so, is it a good idea to use it in
searches for regular values in a database. For instance, i want to
search
for all records with a record_id of 2 and all color_id with 9.

Ferret basically makes an index file on your hard drive. Use it only
for fulltext searches, that’s what it’s really good at. ID searches
are still best performed on the database itself.
