Speeding up Search in Timechart and D3

Hi,

I am using D3 Chart to display the output from the following query:

sourcetype=WinEventLog:Security  | timechart span=1h count as total | appendcols [search 
sourcetype=WinEventLog:Security | timechart span=1h count by eventtype   ] | table _time * total

And I have used report acceleration to get faster results for this query. Currently it takes over five minutes to process and display the query.

Any ideas to speed up the query?

Avoid appendcols or join.

sourcetype=WinEventLog:Security  
| timechart span=1h count by eventtype 
| addtotals

Should be at least twice as fast.
