This is correct - it uses FNDSTRPDM on each member it identifies out of the filter or just library or source file.

As for iSphere - I find the search there is orders of magnitude faster than RDI' s that uses FNDSTRPDM I have a filter over library that have source - and we have a lot - 15-20 at least. It takes most of the time to build the list of members, then it is always less than a minute to do the search - and I'd say the whole thing can be under a minute, never more than 2.

The RDi search could take 10 minutes or more on the same search.

Also, the iSearch flags and settings give you so much more flexibilit - regular expressions, multiple search criteria, it's fantastic!

FNDSTRPDM executed directly on the server. At least for simple cases
like this, where you're searching for a literal string (and not some
regex, for example).
AFAIK, RDi uses FNDSTRPDM under the covers.
