Thank you.

The problem is that Endeca just provided this information. The website users 
see how each search result matched the query.
For example this is displayed for a hit:
1 Product Result

|  Match Criteria: Material, Product Number

The business users will wonder why we cannot provide this information with the 
new system.

Yes, debug=explain is expensive. Expensive in the sense that I’d never add it 
to every query. But if your business users are trying to understand why query X 
came back the way it did by examining individual queries, then I wouldn’t worry.

You can easily see how expensive it is in your situation by looking at the 
timings returned. Debug is just a component just like facet etc and the time it 
takes is listed separately in the timings section of debug output…

Best,
Erick
