Just wondering if multi-database will make links faster
for example

cat1= ART
cat2= school
cat3= Biology

cat1 uses links.db1 id.db1
cat2 uses links.db2 id.db2
and so on

when a person search instead of going through 100 000 links in one database and now it can spilt things up to 50 000 links.

if a person choose to search all cat, then the search engine send the signal out to two database at once and collect information at the same time instead of going to .db1 then .db2
please tell me if this work, or if this even make sence

i also have another question

in the link.def i set
$db_sort links = 11

# Field number to sort links by:
$db_sort_links = 11;

However this works fine except it sort the rating from 1 to 10 rather then (10) higest to lowest (1)
Please help me on this
