Re: Improving Full text performance

If i strip all html tags and filter more stop words, will the search
be more accurate? Actually my fulltext stats returns some like: font
from <font> tags i guess, and other garbage.
If i do that, will i improve the speed of my search?

Thanks!

Ps: I cannot use other tools like MNOsearch, lucene, etc...because i
have no root pass to my server.
