On high traffic sites, this module creates a lot of load due to the search operations on every page. There probably should be some caching of the search results. In our current, self-written CMS, we have a similar block that is cached for 24 hours. This works good enough and massively reduces the load.

I haven't yet used this module, but if it is putting the results into a block, have you considered using the blockcache module?

No, I haven't tried that. Sounds promising. Thanks.

I like the idea of caching the results, but currently I have little time to devote at all to implementing this.
I'd be happy to get it into the system, if somebody want's to do it up.
