If anyone's curious - https://planetscale.com/docs/postgres/search/get-started#loc...:
They're not providing a local extension with the same performance at the time - it's only offered on their cloud services.
The local version https://github.com/planetscale/lead is mainly just for testing the syntax, it doesn't have the same perf characteristics.
The problem is that they don’t support bare metal. I’d love to use PlanetScale in our bare metal servers.
Becoming more the norm for them, Neki is the same.
Immediately rules out ever using them (though I don't currently have any problems that would benefit from that level of scale currently, have in the past though).
Postgres's license allows this but for me (personally) it leaves a bad taste.
Also it's not really "full-text search for Postgres" it's "full-text search for our hosted version of Postgres" so the title is a little misleading.
