Sphinx search query result differs with Active record

I am using sphinx in my application and its configuration is

Thinking sphinx - 1.3.17

Active Record - 2.3.5

After Commit - 1.0.10

Riddle - 1.0.10

Thinking sphinx Raspell - 1.1.1

Raspell -1.3

I have added index for a field name in a table. And i search with the text "sony" which gives 20 record as results.

Sphinx result: Sphinx Querying: 'sony'

Sphinx (0.004703s) Found 43 results

Company Load (1.2ms) SELECT * FROM "companies" WHERE ("companies."id" IN (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,43,64,83,91))

In here Sphinx (0.004703s) Found 43 results but in the sql it has only 20 ids in it . because of this it gives 20 records as result.

If i search the same table using active record using "LIKE" (where lower(name) LIKE '%sony%') produces 43 records as result.

why sphinx produce lesser results?

please reply..

Sphinx will return at most 1,000 results and paginate them by default at 20 items per page. You can over come his:

Article.search 'pancakes', :per_page => 100
