Factors that would apply equally if we used pgsql.ru - what you are most likely seeing it the ads and other graphics loading. If we used pgsql.ru, you would still have those coming from hub.org.

Would be linked from main site with ads if we started using it 'officially'.

Yes, should we leave it hidden? :-) Note that in comparison to pgsql.ru, search.pg.org also groups by site, searches all sites at once and is seriously hacked by PG developers (not written I grant you). It is also open source (GPL, not BSD - not that I think that is particularly important to any of the users).
