FT Search Manager Review:
Time Saver..

FTS is the best thing that happened to Lotus Notes and continues to be.
I use FTSM at least 10 times everyday. I use it specifically when I am not
sure when I received a note. For other searches I rely on the in-built
indexed search.
Each time I used FTSM, I get what I was looking for in about 60s, whereas
without FTSM I would end up opening each archive and searching therein
taking about 60s per search per archive including the time to open the
archive. I have 20 such archives @ 1/month.
Savings:
1 search on FTSM = 60s
1 search w/o FTSM = 1200s (avg to 600s as I may not have to search all 20)
Saving/search = 540s or 0.15 hrs
10 searches on FTSM = 600s
10 searches w/o FTSM = 12000s (avg to 6000s as I may not have to search all
20)
Saving = 5400s or 1.5 hrs
