Sphinx Search or Lucene Search – Which one to choose?

Whilst the search result relevancy of both extensions is quite similar, Lucene Search can be used on shared hosting plans with Magento stores having up to 10,000 searchable products in stock.

Sphinx Search, however, is requiring a VPS or dedicated server to work. It can be be used for an unlimited number of searchable shop products.
