what is the best english stemmer in elasticsearch?

That's really a precision/recall question.

A stemmer that is good for recall is bad for precision and vice-versa so it depends on your objectives.
Examples:

  • precision is lost when an aggressive stemmer turns AIDs into aid.
  • recall suffers when a less aggressive stemmer fails to turn running into run
