Query profiling

A new feature available in Elasticsearch 5.x is the profile API. This allows the user to track the time spent by Elasticsearch in executing a search or an aggregation.

Getting ready

You will need an up-and-running Elasticsearch installation as used in the Downloading and installing Elasticsearch recipe in Chapter 2, Downloading and Setup.

To execute curl via a command line, you need to install curl for your operating system.

To correctly execute the following commands, you will need an index populated with the chapter_05/populate_query.sh script available in the online code.

How to do it...

The steps to profile a query are as follows:

From the command line, we will execute a search with the profile set to true, as follows:
```
 curl -XGET ...
```
