We monitor the response time (pingdom) of the page that uses these boosting parameters. Since the addition of these boosting parameters and an additional field to search on (which I will create a thread on it in the mailing list), the page average response time has increased by 1-2 seconds.

Before worrying about it too much, exactly _how_ much has the performance changed? I’ve just been in too many situations where there’s no objective measure of performance before and after, just someone saying “it seems slower” and had those performance changes disappear when a rigorous test is

Hi Derek, Ah, then my reply was completely off :) I don’t really see a better way. Maybe other than changing termfreq to field, if the numeric field has docValues? That may be faster, but I don’t know for sure. Best regards, Radu -- Sematext Cloud - Full Stack Observability -

Hi Radu Apologies for not making myself clear. I would like to know if there is a more simple or efficient way to craft the boosting parameters based on the requirements. For example, I am using 'if', 'map' and 'termfreq' functions in the bf parameters. Is there a more efficient or simple

Hi Derek, It’s hard to tell whether your boosts can be made better without knowing your data and what users expect of it. Which is a problem in itself. I would suggest gathering judgements, like if a user queries for X, what doc IDs do you expect to get back? Once you have enough of these

Hi I have added the following boosting requirements to the search query of a page. Feedback from monitoring team is that the overall response of the page has increased since then. I am trying to find out if the added boosting parameters (below) could have contributed to the increased. The
