-** This structure holds a record that has already been disassembled

-** The r1 and r2 member variables are only used by the optimized comparison
-** functions vdbeRecordCompareInt() and vdbeRecordCompareString().
+** An instance of this object serves as a "key" for doing a search on
+** an index b+tree. The goal of the search is to find the entry that
+** is closed to the key described by this object.  This object might hold
+** just a prefix of the key.  The number of fields is given by
+** pKeyInfo->nField.
+**
+** The r1 and r2 fields are the values to return if this key is less than
+** or greater than a key in the btree, respectively.  These are normally
+** -1 and +1 respectively, but might be inverted to +1 and -1 if the b-tree
+** is in DESC order.
+**
+** The key comparison functions actually return default_rc when they find
+** an equals comparison.  default_rc can be -1, 0, or +1.  If there are
+** multiple entries in the b-tree with the same key (when only looking
+** at the first pKeyInfo->nFields,) then default_rc can be set to -1 to 
+** cause the search to find the last match, or +1 to cause the search to
+** find the first match.
+**
+** The key comparison functions will set eqSeen to true if they ever
+** get and equal results when comparing this structure to a b-tree record.
+** When default_rc!=0, the search might end up on the record immediately
+** before the first match or immediately after the last match.  The
+** eqSeen field will indicate whether or not an exact match exists in the
+** b-tree.
