Forum: Rails I18n Postgresql search

What do you think is the best plugin to make a heavily-trafficked
postgre database searchable?

UltraSphinx is fast and support PostgreSQL. That speed comes at some 
cost in terms of functionality. If you require real-time index updates 
then Ferret may be the only route to go.

If your requirements allow and you can use PostgreSQL full-text 
indexing, perhaps combined with acts_as_tsearch [1], then that should be 
a great option too in terms of performance.
