Hi, i am not aware if whether or not Discourse uses sphinx for its search function http://sphinxsearch.com but it is very powerful and light. I know on my forum which uses Vbulletin, i had to integrate the sphynix search which works really well than the Mysql default search which comes with VB =) b/…

You can’t compare MySQL based boards where search is slow and painful to Discourse. One of the reasons it uses Postgresql is to work around those limitations.
