Can anyone offer any advice on limiting the number of files searched or the
time to search?  I have an application with a great many sites to search,
and want to limit sites that take too long to search.

I am planning to search each site separately, and merge the results into a
'master' index after the search.  Have others found this to be a good way to
build indexes?

Background:  running swish-e.exe on Win32, in -S mode.
