That’s good performance!</p>\n\n<p>Now, Strigi indexes content full text, but also uses a controlled vocabulary (among which\n<a href=\"http://kemistry-desktop.blogspot.com/2007/04/chemical-semantic-desktop.html\">one specifically for chemistry</a>).\nSo I can search for email messages which have article in the subject with:</p>\n\n<div class=\"language-plaintext highlighter-rouge\"><div class=\"highlight\"><pre class=\"highlight\"><code>strigicmd query -t clucene -d index/ email.subject:article\n</code></pre></div></div>\n\n<p>However, <code class=\"language-plaintext highlighter-rouge\">From:</code> and <code class=\"language-plaintext highlighter-rouge\">To:</code> content was not yet extracted. That was easily patched. This allows me to find correspondence between me and, for example, Christoph:</p>\n\n<div class=\"language-plaintext highlighter-rouge\"><div class=\"highlight\"><pre class=\"highlight\"><code>strigicmd query -t clucene -d index/ email.to:Christoph AND email.from:Egon\n</code></pre></div></div>",
