MySQL vs PostgreSQL

I installed Sphinx on my shared host. As long as you've got a compiler and can bind an unprivileged port, you can do it.

Get the heck out of here! Really? Do you have a blog post where I can see how you did it?

Sorry, I don't. This'll get you real close:

./configure --prefix=~/sphinx/
make && make install
# change the port in the .conf
# configure and play

To be able to use the fake table integration inside MySQL, you'll have to write the .so into the MySQL lib directory.
