478043 - Search should default to "is exactly" option

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Socorro :: General, task)

When using Socorro to search for crash reports it's mostly not useful to use the contains options which is the default one right now. You will mostly run into connection interrupted errors in that way.

Lets take the following example: "nsMenuItemIconX::OnStopRequest(imgIRequest*,+int)"

The interesting part of this frame is really the function name. Any parameters don't need any attraction for initial searches, which are mostly done when doing quick searches for the last couple of weeks.

Lars, can we get the dropdown option default to "starts with"?

I don't think "starts with" is any more efficient than "contains". They both do a LIKE query.

You are right. Sam, I did the following search to check this:

http://crash-stats.mozilla.com/?do_query=1&product=Firefox&query_search=signature&query_type=exact&query=nsContentUtils%3A%3AComparePosition&date=&range_value=3&range_unit=weeks

It still times out. Changing the option to "is exactly" gives results within a second. So we probably switch over to "is exactly"?

depends on bug 467353?

I will change this with the redesign. This should ship next week.

is exactly will be the default choice.

Verified. I'll play around with it but for now it has an amazing speed. Thanks.
