The typesense performance is really impressive, seems at par with the (also) impressive meilisearch. I'm going to try the free tier of typesense right now, perfect for my current use-case of site-search. How large is the dataset for the books? How large nodes are needed?

Thank you! The OpenLibrary dataset has ~28M records, takes up 6.8GB on disk and 14.3GB in RAM when indexed in Typesense. Each node has 4vCPUs. Took me ~3 hours to index these 28M records. Could have probably been done in ~1.5hrs - most of the indexing time was because of cross-region latency between the 3 geo-distributed nodes in Oregon, Mumbai and Frankfurt.

  That's a lot of text to index, impressive! Is the indexed size 6.8GB or 14.3GB?

I'm curious, what do you feel meilisearch offers that is better than elasticsearch or solr?
