I was wondering , as a rule of thumb, how many warmer queries is considered healthy? We have about 200-350 pre configured search queries which I would like to register as warmer queries when creating my index, and update the warmer queries when a new query is registered Now I know that this should not affect the search queries themselves since the warmer thread is a seperate one - but will it affect my node's stability ?

Warmer queries will affect indexing time since each new segment needs to be warmed up. If you are going to do a large bulk load of data, it would be advisable to disable warming. With elasticsearch 0.90.6, it should not be necessary to register different queries for the warmer API: > > > Query-based warm-up is convenient as it doesn't require to know how things work …under the hood to warm-up a segment: people just have to put there queries that are similar to their users' queries. > > However, warm-up could be made more efficient through \`IndexWriterConfig.setMergedSegmentWarmer\`/\`IndexWriter.IndexReaderWarmer\` which doesn't require running a query at all and is run during the merging phase, before the new segment goes live. I think we should expose a way to register such warmers and maybe use something like \`SimpleMergedSegmentWarmer\` by default.
