Query document size

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi,

I'm fairly new to ES and I wonder if there is a way to query size (in
bytes) of a single document, not average.

There was similar post
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/elasticsearch/N83Q-K_jK34/gYmbQSRn82kJ

which was was not answered. Did anyone ever encountered need for that and
possibly help how can I do it?

What are you looking to measure? The indexes don't really have a per
document size because they, well, are indexes. The documents do taken up
some space on disk but they are compressed.

Compressed size of a document on disk would be enough. We use store level
compression not the per document.
Would this be then actually possible?

Thanks

In that case you can just count the bytes in the _source field. As I said
before just adding those up won't give you all the space taken up by the
whole shard but it'll give you some idea of how much space Lucene uses.
