Hi, is it possible to get the query time for searching and indexing? One year ago it was discussed: In [http://elasticsearch-users.115913.n3.nabble.com/Elapsed-query-time-td428663.html](http://elasticsearch-users.115913.n3.nabble.com/Elapsed-query-time-td428663.html) ---

I have just seen that BulkResponse has a getTookInMillis-Method. So I'll use BulkResponse instead of IndexResponse. Maybe it will be better to provide the getTookInMillis-Method in every Response-Class.

Hi, you get millis in search response. As for the indexing operations I can not speak for Shay but I think you have to keep in mind that when you get the response back it does not have to mean that the operation itself has been propagated to all shard replicas in the cluster (you can opt between sync and async operations per request). So it depends what specifically you are after. just my 2cents Lukas On Wed, May 25, 2011 at 11:24 AM, maho [mathias.hodler@gmail.com](mailto:mathias.hodler@gmail.com) wrote: > I have just seen that BulkResponse has a getTookInMillis-Method. > So I'll use BulkResponse instead of IndexResponse. > > Maybe it will be better to provide the getTookInMillis-Method in every > Response-Class. > > On 25 Mai, 11:02, maho [mathias.hod...@gmail.com](mailto:mathias.hod...@gmail.com) wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > is it possible to get the query time for searching and indexing? > > > > One year ago it was discussed: Inhttp:// > > [elasticsearch-users.115913.n3.nabble.com/Elapsed-query-time-td](http://elasticsearch-users.115913.n3.nabble.com/Elapsed-query-time-td)... ---

Search already has it. Index operation is something that you need to track, I don't see a reason why you would really need in typical operations, and adding the overhead does not seem reasonable (to me :), open to other people opinions). Replication is, by default, sync. On Wednesday, May 25, 2011 at 1:04 PM, Lukáš Vlček wrote: Hi, > you get millis in search response.
