No, it doesn't.

The main issue is that the built in search engine of MediaWiki only works well with small to medium sized wikis, and with one of our size it doesn't search the database in a timely enough manner due to it's limited function to bring back a result before timeouts occur.

The number of the pages you mentioned is a non concern, it's just the stock search is too weak for our needs, and the solution I and staff have been proposing will be to use something more than adequate for those needs.
