Any view on which is faster Jesse (postgres or mysql/sphinx)?


I haven't yet benchmarked em.

Also how much faster than the old Content search are we talking? Orders
of magnitude, or just 'faster'?

Having played with one of the implementations, it's night and day.
That is, IMHO, if you don't prefix queries for content with % which will kill any and all indices on your table. I have removed the pre/post pending of % from Searchbuilder because of this. I rather have that people complain they can't find something then that they kill the database. Now they know that if they want search for content that they need to add a % at the end and if they really need it at the front but they also know that they are gonna wait for it.
