I know ES could cache the filter result, but how about query result, especially the hits result? ---

No. Filters are cached. Why are you asking that? Do you have an issue? ---

We are running performance test against our ES cluster using Jmeter with simple settings: 20 user load target throughput 1000 QPS 10 different query request. The average response time is around 8 ms after 1 hour running. The 8 ms PLT is so good that I even cannot believe it. So I was wondering if the result of frequent query request was cached. ---
