Hi, is it not possible to set timeout for CountRequestBuilder ? May be it does not make sense, just asking. Regards, Lukas ---

No, there isn't an option. Can be added, but you can also just use search\_type set to count, which will have similar behavior (with additional features, like being able to do facets).

In my case I need only the count (there are no facets in my query) and I assume CountRequestBuilder should be more efficient then SearchRequestBuilder with setSearchType(SearchType.COUNT) - is my assumption correct? And I think it would make sense to allow timeout for CountRequestBuilder though I can live without it for now (should I open a ticket?).
