(is it ontopic here?) Solr+Lucene has far more features, and seems to be more extendable as well. - we had problems about speed related to faceting (while I know it can be implemented), Solr's faceting looks promising - we had to do some workaround to implement some other features on the site, the Solr version of these are simpler - and we miss a good solution for scalability and availability like Solr Cloud. Anyway, Sphinx works really well, but Solr seems to be better for us. Bye, Andras
