Describe your problem

The retrieval process is too slow. Are there some methods to improve it?

I have read the relevant issues, and I did not turn on the rerank button. And I use ES as the doc engine.

What's more, there are around 700 files in the dataset. Among them, 400 files have an average of 10 chunks each, with each chunk containing 512 tokens. The remaining files have an average of 4 chunks each, also with 512 tokens per chunk.

Here is the list of elapsed time.
