As I said before - "I don't
know that it does, but I wouldn't be surprised if it did." The only person who can say for certain is Kovid Goyal, or maybe chaley - I'm sure one of them will drop by in the next 24 hours.

I just did a search for 'after' in the 8,533 book library I happen to have open - 31 books of 8,533 were found more or less instantly - all bar one had 'after' in the title, the exception had it in a long text custom column. I did three similar searches where I knew I'd have more matches, 700+, 140+ and 4,500+ (a publisher name) - all three gave a similar response. The library is on a WD 2TB Caviar Black drive.
I sometimes see 'Not Responding' when I add a chunky video as a new book, but never in a search. IIRC there are custom composite column templates that can slow things down, displaying file system properties, such as size, date modified, etc for format files, come to mind.
