Meilisearch vs. Elasticsearch
> Meilisearch focuses on simplicity, relevancy, and performance.
> excellent relevance out of the box
> if ease of use, performance, and relevancy are important to you, Meilisearch was made for you
Is there a benchmark that shows Meilisearch outperforming Elasticsearch in terms of relevance score? I couldn't find Meilisearch listed on https://github.com/beir-cellar/beir.

An alternative to Elasticsearch that runs on a few MBs of RAM
There are actually benchmarks that allow measuring search relevancy objectively, e.g. BEIR[1]. Manticore Search team did an effort to make a PR to include it to the list. The results are here [2]. Unfortunately the BEIR team seems to be too busy to review a whole pile of PRs including about Vespa. Nevertheless it would be nice to have both Meilisearch and Typesense there too since it's interesting what performance those non-tf-idf based search engines would show compared to BM25-based and vector search engines.

Manticore Search: Elasticsearch Alternative
True! Here's a pull request to BEIR to compare Manticore with Elasticsearch in terms of relevance https://github.com/beir-cellar/beir/pull/92. Spoiler: in this test Manticore provides better relevance than Elasticsearch in average. Of course you can tune both further and Elasticsearch now has KNN which when combined with BM25 can give even better relevance. In general I would say for most users the results quality in terms of full-text relevance is about the same in Elasticseach and Manticore.

Manticore: a faster alternative to Elasticsearch in C++ with a 21-year history
But there's for example BEIR that compared BM25 vs state of the art ML language models and it turned out BM25 is in average better than all of them unless you rerank top 100 results from Elasticsearch using the language models. With Manticore you can get even better relevance than with Elasticsearch. We made a pull-request to BEIR to demonstrate that https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_ZyYkPJ_K0st9FJBrjbZqX14nmCCPVlE_y3a_y5KkYI/edit#gid=0
