Hello, I am building an application that performs aggregations over time-series data.
The prevailing advice for my situation seems to be that I should use filters rather than queries to provide scope for my aggregations. The reasons being 1) I have no need for scoring 2) I will be able to take advantage of filter caching. However, a very common use case is for my users to scope aggregations to a completely arbitrary time range. This means it is relatively unlikely to receive many requests scoped to exactly the same time range. If I implement this using a range filter, does this mean for filter caching? Is ElasticSearch going waste time and memory building a separate filter cache for each individual range it sees? (and should I hence use a query?) Or is it smarter than that? cheers Perryn -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
