Hi all, i have a weird (at least in my oppinion) situation on my environment.
my hardware: 3 data nodes with 32GB of ram (16GB of Java heap for ES) using data from logstash, stored per day manner with 360 5*shard + 1 replica indexes -* NO ROUTING *-> grouped by alias named* norouting* and same indexes (different names of course) reindexed with new mapping: and 360 4*shard + 1 replica indexes - *WITH ROUTING * -> grouped by alias named* routing* about *2 billions *of docs, about* 0.8 TB* of data I have 4 customers that I want to split to their own indices by routing to increase performance when querying the whole year of data. 3 customers are similar size, and one is about 2x times larger than others. When I performed tests (I cleared the cache with _cache/clear before each query) Simple query that I was using for indexes with routing: ----------------------------- /*routing*/_search?routing=CUSTOMER1 { "query": { "filtered": { "query": { "match_all": {} }, "filter": { "term": { "Customer.raw": "CUSTOMER1" } } } } } result: *360 indices read, 18 sec response* ----------------------------- and the indexes without routing /*norouting*/_search { "query": { "filtered": { "query": { "match_all": {} }, "filter": { "term": { "Customer.raw": "CUSTOMER1" } } } } } result: *1800 indices read, 7 sec response* *... no matter which customer I want to find, results are similar, searching with routing is always almoust 2.5 times slower !* This does not make any sense ... should be opposite in my oppinion. Any help would be much appreciated !. After I've read about routing I was happy and hoping I could speed up the queries without adding additional hardware ... now I'm very sceptical. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
