Hi,
If you use MySQL ISAM with FULLTEXT, and not LIKE, but MATCH AGAINST, you
are using one of the fastest approaches a developer can set up (as far as I
know).
I expect the only way to increase searchspeed for a 100GB database filled
with text, is throwing more/better hardware at it (more memory, faster disk
IO, faster CPU, etc.).
In general: When searching through a huge datastructure: Disk IO is the
bottleneck. So faster disk IO will help the most.
Dive into different RAID systems maybe.
eg: If you have 2 HD delivering data at the same time (using some RAID),
your query will maybe run twice as fast.
