Using django-haystack with whoosh 2.7.4: there is a huge performance difference under python 2.7 and python 3.7.
The virtual envs have same code and data, index size about 200M.
A basic simple search takes about 0.1 sec under python 2.7, but takes 5~10 sec under python 3.7, about 100 times slower.
From my test, the following whoosh calls take the bulk of the time under python 3.7:
index.searcher()
index.doc_count()
parser.parse(query_string)
collector.prepare(self, q, context)
Has anyone experienced the same?
Any advice how to boost whoosh performance under python 3.7? Thank you!
