Hi, I am using Search query which gives the result as below. All,Min Throughput,relative-kibana-discover\_50%,0.02,ops/s All,Median Throughput,relative-kibana-discover\_50%,0.02,ops/s All,Max Throughput,relative-kibana-discover\_50%,0.08,ops/s So, just wanted to understand the meaning of ops/s here. --Regards, Balmukund ---

That is the number of operations of that type run per second. These are reasonably heavy queries scheduled to run at regular intervals, which explains the low number of ops/sec. ---

Hi Christian, Thank you for your prompt response. It would be great if you could highlight the operations in the below custom query. { "name": "custom\_query", "operation-type": "search", "index": "elasticlogs\_\*", "body": { "query": {"bool": {"must": [{"bool": {"should": [ {"match": {"nginx.access.geoip.country\_name": ""}}, {"match": {"nginx.access.geoip.country\_iso\_code": ""}} ]}}, {"bool": {"should": [ {"match": {"nginx.access.user\_agent.os\_name": "Mac OS X"}}, {"match": {"nginx.access.user\_agent.device": "Other"}} ]}}, {"bool": {"should": [ {"match": {"nginx.access.geoip.continent\_name": "Asia"}}, {"match": {"nginx.access.response\_code": "200"}} ]}}, {"bool": {"should": [{"match": {"nginx.access.geoip.city\_name": ""}}, {"match": {"nginx.access.remote\_ip": "203.112.82.0"}} ]}} ]}} } } Basically, I want to understand, is it the number of operations of a query per sec? --Regards, Balmukund ---

I am not sure I understand. If you have a look at the track is structured you will see how it is configured. ---

Hi Christian, Thank you for your reply. How do you define operations in the above query? Also, ops/sec means query per sec here? Please find below operation type. "schedule": [ { "operation": "delete-index" }, { "operation": { "operation-type": "create-index", "settings": { "index.number\_of\_replicas": {{ number\_of\_replicas | default(0) }}, "index.number\_of\_shards": {{ shard\_count | default(2) }} } } }, { "operation": "index-append-1000", "warmup-time-period": 0, "time-period": 1200, "clients": {{ p\_bulk\_indexing\_clients }} } ] Please elaborate here, ops/sec. --Regards, Balmukund ---

The first two operations there runs only once, which means ops/sec does not really mean much. The last one is not rate limited (unlike the queries you mentioned earlier) so that ops/sec will vary. Please have a look at the esrally documentation as this describes the structure of a track and the configuration options. ---

Hi Christian, Thank you for your reply. I went through various documents and tried to understand but still have little doubts.I think, below example can make me clear. Sorry, to ask it again and again. { "schedule": [ { "operation": { "operation-type": "search", "index": "\_all", "body": { "query": { "match\_all": {} } } }, "warmup-iterations": 100, "iterations": 100, "target-throughput": 10 } ] } So, here " **search**" type operation runs 100 times. It calculates per sec operations from this iterations. Please correct me my understanding. --Regards, Balmukund ---

Here the target throughput is 10 ops/sec which is what esrally will try to achieve. It will not go higher than this. ---

Hi Christian, How to check the number of merge threads in elasticsearch? --Regards, Balmukund ---
