  - Manticore Search runs on minimal resources (1 core, 1GB RAM) for small deployments.
  - Performance benchmarks show up to 2.83x faster than Elasticsearch for big data workloads.
  - Up to 10.09x faster than Elasticsearch for log analytics workloads.
  - Up to 182x faster than MySQL for small dataset full-text search.
  - Real-time inserts and multi-master replication are supported.
  - Columnar storage and secondary indexes (PGM-index) can be used to optimize query performance.
  - For managed deployments via third-party providers (e.g., Elestio), check that provider's resource limits.
