Faster queries

Elastic Stack Kibana

Hi,

I was wondering if there is any significant performance increase if i use a filtered query like this:

{
    "filtered": {
        "filter": {
            "bool": {
                "must": [
                    {
                        "term": {
                            "_cache": true,
                            "action": "download"
                        }
                    }
                ]
            }
        }
    }
}

Instead of using the DSL like this:
action:download

Specifically i was wondering regarding the following things:

  1. Performance - Both for the first query and for following ones (with different dates)
  2. Useability - For example if i want to add an additional filter now, in the first example (The filtered one) i will have to beautify the query, find exactly where to put it, minify it again, and put that in the query box, while for the second query i have simply do: action:download AND file:XXX for example.

Is there a way to put the filtered query in kibana but not also show it in the query box? So extra filters with use the default kibana filtering
