Hi friends,

Is it possible when sorting by a field, that we get all documents with the same value in the end (even if they are more than `size` value total docs returned ?

Meaning, if we have `size:2` and values that we sort are `[1,2,2,2,3,4,5]`, then we get back `[1,2,2,2]` since they have the same value (their ordering doesn't matter).

Thanks

bump();

I know with the default min-heap it's not possible, but maybe using some kind of script ? Or it needs a custom plugin ?

Thanks
