[ic] relatively easy way to double performance

    Just screwing around today, reading up on some of the performance stuff
posted by Mike in the past.  Based on this, I did a test.  If I modify the
default results.html page to use PREFIX-param (which translates to
item-param in the results.html) and then modify my searches to use
rf=sku,category,prod_group,thumb,description,inactive,price I am able to
double the performance of the default results page according to the results
returned by ab with a concurrency level of 10 and 50 total requests.  This
is a relatively easy modification to make (it took me 3 minutes) to gain
such a substantial performance increase.
