Are percolator requests Synchronous/blocking, meaning one would have to wait for a response back, so if I had 100,000 requests, I have to wait for matching results for every one of these percolator requests? It doesn't seem right to me, can someone elaborate please? Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Yes, they are. Pretty much like any search request with Elasticsearch. -- Itamar Syn-Hershko [http://code972.com](http://code972.com) | @synhershko [https://twitter.com/synhershko](https://twitter.com/synhershko) Freelance Developer & Consultant Author of RavenDB in Action [http://manning.com/synhershko/](http://manning.com/synhershko/) On Tue, Sep 30, 2014 at 1:03 AM, IronMike [sabdalla80@gmail.com](mailto:sabdalla80@gmail.com) wrote: > Are percolator requests Synchronous/blocking, meaning one would have to > wait for a response back, so if I had 100,000 requests, I have to wait for > matching results for every one of these percolator requests? > > It doesn't seem right to me, can someone elaborate please? > > Thanks > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "elasticsearch" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to [elasticsearch+unsubscribe@googlegroups.com](mailto:elasticsearch+unsubscribe@googlegroups.com). > To view this discussion on the web visit > [https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/elasticsearch/9b35cbb1-ee55-4528-8073-d970580388ec%40googlegroups.com](https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/elasticsearch/9b35cbb1-ee55-4528-8073-d970580388ec%40googlegroups.com) > [https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/elasticsearch/9b35cbb1-ee55-4528-8073-d970580388ec%40googlegroups.com?utm\_medium=email&utm\_source=footer](https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/elasticsearch/9b35cbb1-ee55-4528-8073-d970580388ec%40googlegroups.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer) > . > For more options, visit [https://groups.google.com/d/optout](https://groups.google.com/d/optout). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
