Go take a look at IMB's Cloudant. (https://cloudant.com https://cloudant.com) They have some examples there demonstrate how fast it is at digesting data from 100s of 1000s of records. It has to do with how the data from searches are stored in a B-tree. I won't pretend to know the science behind that but I can tell you it's impressively fast and easy to achieve. And you can use PouchDB to create the client side interface and plug it into a CouchDB server you set up or IBM's Cloudant, or both for that matter, with just a line or two of code. So you really don't even need to setup a database server to get started on you application code. You can create a Cloudant DB and load it with data and get right to work on your client.
