This is a known bug in ri.  :(

Sure:

   1.  Launch TextMate
   2.  Select "Release Notes" from the "Help" menu
   3.  Push control-s to activate the incremental search
   4.  Type "fastri" without the quotes
   5.  Read and follow the instructions in the entry the search  
highlights.

Hope that helps.
