Is there a size range at which it is accepted to be advantageous to move your text out of the standard text table?
It's not so much about size as it is about load. Wikipedia uses ES because it's a heavy-load wiki. More specific directions about when ES makes sense and when it doesn't are probably better given by people more familiar with databases than me.
