I actually tried Stork this morning after reading about it on console.dev awhile back (it's been on my list). I had high hopes, but I found the result sets to be a bit less-than-stellar for technical docs, and typing performance also seemed to take a hit. Both of these may totally be on me -- possibly due to the fact I didn't optimize any settings, and maybe my index size. But that's actually why I'm here... I just got tired of tinkering. I want something I don't need to tinker with.

If those things can be improved, I'd love to be a beta tester for a hosted solution. I'd love to not have to handle this myself.

Follow up: I spent more time with Stork last night and I think I have it in a decent place. And after some fine tuning regarding indexed content, and some brotli/gzip compression, the index size isn't too bad (<3MB vs >30MB). Still having issues around excluding elements from the index, but maybe I'll spend some more time here when I can.

I'm definitely interested in a hosted solution that "just works" so I don't need to keep tinkering with it.
