The documentation offers the opportunity to use sphinx search. However, it appears that there is search functionality even without sphinx installed.
How does adding sphinx improve / extend the default search functionality?
By default internal database search capability is used. In MySQL - MyISAM engine supports full text search, postgres supports it natively.
The only external search we support now is Sphinx - very necessary for Chinese installations as Chinese search has special requirements and there is a Chinese language port of Sphinx.
