Actually what you mentioned Alessandro is something interesting for me. I am looking to boost the ranking of some suggestions based on some dynamic criteria (let's say how frequent they are used). Do I need to update the boost field each time I request the suggestion (to capture the frequency)? If you can direct me to an article that explains this with some scenarios of using boost that would be appreciated.
