I love Postgres, but you're comparing apples and oranges. You don't have the same level of query sophistication neither the same indexing quality you get from eg. elasticsearch. As a quick example, the other day I got a bug in PostgreSQL because "searching" does not perform diacritics conversion. Also, stuff like stop words, similarity search and whatnot either required dedicated indexes or are downright "round hole square peg" problems.
