I am indexing a deeply nested structure and am trying to return it with fl=*,[child].
And it is supposed to have 5 children under the top element but returns only 4. Two hours of debugging later, I realize that the "limit" parameter is set to 10 by default and that 10 seems to be counting children at ANY level. And calculating them depth-first. So, it was quite unobvious to discover when the children suddenly stopped showing up. The documentation says: > The maximum number of child documents to be returned per parent document. > > The default is `10`. So, is that (all nested children included in limit) what we actually mean? Or did we mean maximum number of "immediate children" for any specific document/level and the code is wrong? I can update the doc to clarify the results, but I don't know whether I am looking at the bug or the feature.
