I am struggling a bit to understand which ES operations use up which part of memory
- From reading the documentation I know that faceting and sorting take up heap memory and also that some filters are cached in JVM heap. However, what other operations take up JVM heap memory? - When faceting on a particular field are all of the values of that field loaded into JVM heap or only the distinct values of the field. I would believe it is the latter as fields of high cardinality require more JVM heap. - What operations use OS memory. I believe documents retrieved and ES index are kept in OS memory. Can anyone confirm this? What other operations go to OS memory? Finally, I would also be interested if there are any posts or tutorials that desribce the complete lifecycle of a query from submission of query to return of resultset.
