I have three fields defined as fulltext: name, address, city

I know they likely are not equivellent, but which performs better?

A)
INDEX name FULLTEXT on name
INDEX address FULLTEXT on address
INDEX city FULLTEXT on city
SELECT * FROM TABLE
WHERE MATCH(name) AGAINST ('QUERY' IN BOOLEAN MODE)
OR MATCH(address ) AGAINST ('QUERY' IN BOOLEAN MODE)
OR MATCH(city) AGAINST ('QUERY' IN BOOLEAN MODE)

-OR-

B)
INDEX name_address_city FULLTEXT on name, address, city
SELECT * FROM TABLE
WHERE MATCH(name, address, city) AGAINST ('QUERY' IN BOOLEAN MODE)
