[ANN] New RubyGems Indexer

Tom Copeland has just deployed my new RubyGems indexer in preparation for a RubyGems beta.

You should see fewer bulk index updates, and no more missing gems that you know are there.

It's supposed to be fully backwards-compatible, but I might have screwed something up.

Is the fast index working yet?

The quick index has been in RubyGems since 0.9.2, IIRC, but the way the indexer was written the files needed for it to function were missing more than half the time.
