The main benefit of the upgrade for users is the search optimization for top scored documents when the total hit count is not needed. However this optimization is not activated in this change, there is another issue opened to discuss how it should be integrated smoothly.
Some comments about the change:
* Tests that can produce negative scores have been adapted but we need to forbid them completely: #33309Closes#32899
From 7.0 on, using `delimited_payload_filter` should throw an error.
It was deprecated in 6.2 in favour of `delimited_payload` (#26625).
Relates to #27704
Increase the default limit of `index.highlight.max_analyzed_offset` to 1M instead of previous 10K.
Enhance an error message when offset increased to include field name, index name and doc_id.
Relates to https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/16764
* Limit the analyzed text for highlighting
- Introduce index level settings to control the max number of character
to be analyzed for highlighting
- Throw an error if analysis is required on a larger text
Closes#27517
Add an index level setting `index.analyze.max_token_count` to control
the number of generated tokens in the _analyze endpoint.
Defaults to 10000.
Throw an error if the number of generated tokens exceeds this limit.
Closes#27038
The `delimited_payload_filter` is renamed to `delimited_payload`, the old name is
deprecated and should be replaced by `delimited_payload`.
Closes#21978
