Manticore Search 6
If you use our Manticore Columnar Library, which is highly recommended, secondary indexes are now ON by default. After their introduction in the previous major release they were significantly improved and we now believe having them enabled by default makes sense for most users. There’s also a new command ALTER TABLE table_name REBUILD SECONDARY to rebuild your secondary indexes, e.g. when you upgrade from a previous version.

Manticore: a faster alternative to Elasticsearch in C++ with a 21-year history
Speaking about the other differences, the most important is probably the same as if we compare Manticore with Typesense: MeiliSearch isn't supposed to be used in a big data scenario. They say that the max index size is 100 GB and that 8.6MB dataset when indexed by MeiliSearch takes 300+ MB of RAM . Manticore Search for example is used by Craigslist that would probably go broke if they had to spend 300MB of RAM for each 9MB of data. And we made it even better when we developed the columnar storage.
