Will indexing value field of statistical and terms\_stats facets as stored improve perf ormance? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Thanks Clint! So when terms\_stats facet totals this field it will not try to load source it will use indexed values if it is indexed? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Correct, facets will use the field data cache for the values. The values are cached from the indexed Lucene fields. If source was used, then the value will need to be analyzed, which would be more inefficient. -- Ivan On Wed, Mar 6, 2013 at 11:29 AM, AlexR [roytmana@gmail.com](mailto:roytmana@gmail.com) wrote: > Thanks Clint! > > So when terms\_stats facet totals this field it will not try to load source > it will use indexed values if it is indexed? > > -- > 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). > For more options, visit [https://groups.google.com/groups/opt\_out](https://groups.google.com/groups/opt_out). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
