Hi!

Does anybody know any tool that can measure the search performance per pipeline?
Purpose is to detect the portion that is taking to long.

i.e
index = main | xxxxxx | xxxxxx |xxxxxxx
- measure the time took here

Thanks,
Yu

The search inspector will tell you how long each part of a search took, though you may need to interpret and map the sections to each step.
