Which search engine should I choose for my Django site?

The engine must have access to the MySQL database, because some content is loaded only by the ajax request of users. While considering Haystack, who has experience with it?

I used Haystack to organize a product search in an online store. The engine took Whoosh. It is less resource-intensive and does not work as a separate process. Everything worked perfectly.

If you have the time and means to set up a high-quality search , I recommend Sphinx, Sorl, or Elasticsearch.

But in practice, of these three, I only used Sphinx. And then, from PHP..
