This is demo of my prototype which performs searches over YaCy P2P network and tries to do it fast and provide more relevant results especially for multi-word queries. Built it because found quality of search results provided by the reference Java implementation to be poor. Would be like to hear your feedback about it.

There are some interesting results when searching drugs. It doesn't give good results for regular queries though

Could you give examples of regular queries which you tried? I'd take a look to find whatever that is a ranking problem or the DHT network just lacks good results for it.

About first problem though.. I already trained small model to catch spam pages and push them at the bottom of results, I'd spend more time to train it to catch pages about drugs too.
