The limit will always be logical if you have all documents in the same index. But filters are very efficient when working with subset of your index, especially if you reuse the same filter for many queries since there is a cache.
If your subsets are always the same subsets, maybe your could use shards. But we would need to know more about what you intend to do, to point to an adequate solution.

But does this range query just limit the universe logically or does it have any mechanism to limit this physically as well .Do we leverage time factor by using the range query ?
