gollark: No, it has it in a separate module.
gollark: It also ships a "fuse filter" thing, which is apparently based on similar principles but mildly more compact, except construction can fail, and according to their empirical testing it needs over 100000 keys to have a decent chance of not failing, and the only explanation is a link to an incomprehensible paper on properties of hypergraphs.

gollark: Also, I'm wondering if I *should* actually make it store the full text of stuff, for highlighting the relevant bits.
gollark: As of now the search is just limited to ANDing all the bitmaps; it doesn't do ranking, nearness, multiple boolean operators, sort of thing.
