Domain Classification & Tags

Performance Profile

#performance_profile

Typical read and write throughput, payload size and processing latency.

Read Performance Profile

Throughput: Thousands to tens of thousands of queries/sec

Payload Size: Varies greatly, from small keyword searches to large faceted queries (tens of bytes to several KB)

Processing Latency: Typically 10-100 ms for simple queries, can be higher for complex aggregations

Write Performance Profile

Throughput: Hundreds to thousands of documents/sec per shard, can be higher with batching

Payload Size: Typically 1 KB to 1 MB per document, but can handle larger

Processing Latency: Typically 50-500 ms for individual document indexing, lower with batching
