Hi,

I have routing setup on analyzed(custom analyzer- char replace filter and edgeNGram) field. Most searches are going to happen on that field, I would like to know how would it play out.

The documentation says that queries against analyzed field will also go through analyzer but if the same field is also analyzed how would this play out?
