I tried migrating our facet search from the old facet method to the new json facet API, but there is one problem in the size of the returned response. for example one query response size is around 1.2 MB while the same query using the old facet method produces a response of around 160 KB.
Is there any way to reduce the size of the response from the json facet response? I'm using version 5.2 BTW.
