Hi,
Do you think the relational model could efficiently be used as the basis of search engines such as google (calculating pagerank, extracting results quickly). if a database engine, say mysql, were used to power a search engine, how much slower would it be expected to be? (5%? 50%? 90%? 100 times slower?). Or, to make things more even, let's say we had a main memory SQL database? Has anyone looked into this or is interested in doing so?
