For those of us who would prefer Sphinx and for those of us who use Ngnix, not Apache / Apache2

I'm not sure where Nginx comes into it.
But given that we have already written a search based on elasticsearch that can scale to effectively infinite levels (given the resources), I can't see that we're going to implement a Sphinx version.
Elasticsearch is a separate daemon that runs on your server. It has nothing to do with Nginx or Apache (though it does expose a web server, on port 9200 by default).elasticsearch does not work on Nginx.
The majority of major sites / large sites do not use Apache, but do use Nginx.

Why?
Yeah I thought RAM was real cheap now... $500/yr for some more RAM seems very steep.
3) elasticsearch costs more money to support than sphinx.
For around 80 USD per month you can get a server with 32 GB RAM. RAM is really cheap now..
I am paying 260 USD per month for a server with 4 GB ram hosted in Softlayer ! who is your server host?
The memory requirements for elasticsearch outlined in the install thread are going to cost me roughly $500/yr in additional hosting fees.
Thats pretty steep.
