Hi,
We have an AppSearch deployment running on Elastic Cloud Azure Netherlands. From here we use the crawler to crawl "https://www.unive.nl". The crawler is configured to crawl by use of the sitemap with a crawl depth of 1. This results in 2155 indexed documents.
For search we hit the search API with a query including "search_fields" and "result_fields" settings.
Response times are on average between 800ms and 1,2s. This seems a but slow to us. And our customer is complaining.
We tried increasing AppSearch deployment resources (from 4GB to 8GB per instance), but this didn't help. Search latency in ES is 1ms which seems fine. We tried search from different points in network, but it doesn't make a difference. Quering Elasticsearch directly for the same data takes around 200 ms. Does AppSearch introduce extra latency of around 600 ~ 1000 ms?
Do you agree it's slow? What else can we do to speed it up?
Some screenshots with more detail on the setup attached.
Thank you!
Kind regards,
Mark Niemeijer
P.S. The query we use:
{
"query": "tand",
"page": {
"size": 100
},
"search_fields": {
"title": {},
"body_content": {},
"meta_keywords": {},
"meta_description": {},
"url": {}
},
"result_fields": {
"url": {
"raw": {
"size": 500
}
},
"title": {
"raw": {
"size": 100
}
},
"body_content": {
"snippet": {
"size": 100,
"fallback": true
}
}
}
}
