Hi Ernesto, you may use a tool like JMeter to throw randomized queries and other operations at an Elasticsearch instance. JMeter will take care of counting requests per time and possibly also register other parameters you may use for a more detailed evaluation. At the end of the day, the total client count of queries that were processed in a given time frame is important. Don't rely on Elasticsearch-internal counters that may include other requests not visible to clients. The net performance should be measured end-to-end, possibly not even on the REST service or transport level, but at the respective front-end application (where one page view may trigger multiple Elasticsearch requests).
