In the stand-alone environment, sends a search request, ES just launched a search thread mointored by JProfiler. Does ES can set up multiple search threads? Because my machine have many CPU cores, the utilization rate of CPU is only 50%. So I want to improve the utilization ratio of CPU to increase the speed of query.
