How does Flock perform compared to other libs?

Taking a typical case of text search on a 1000 row table

• Flock builds the index about 2-3 times faster than jOrder
• Flock queries about 2-5 times slower than jOrder

The above test is a bit unfair though, since jOrder is made to perform well on flat tables. If we took more complex data structures, these ratios would surely change in Flock's favor. Stacked search (searching in search results) is one of those scenarios.
