Kranti, I can't speak to the specific slow-down while grouping, but if you expect to run [* TO *] queries with any frequency then you should index a boolean flag and query for that instead. You might also reduce the precisionStep value for the field you are using to 6 or even 4. But wow that's a big difference you noted; it wouldn't hurt to double-check with the debugger that the [* TO *] is treated as a numeric range query instead of a generic term range.

Is there any known issue with Range queries + grouping? Case1: q=id:123&group=true&sort=price asc&group.field=entityId&group.limit=2&group.ngroups=true Case2: q=id:123 AND price:[* TO *]&group=true&sort=price asc&group.field=entityId&group.limit=2&group.ngroups=true Index Size:10M/~5GB After running both queries at least once, I was expecting to hit the query caches and response should be quick enough, but Case1: 15-20ms (looks fine) Case2: 400+ms (this seems constantly >400ms even after the first query) any thought? if it's a known issue, please point me to the jira link otherwise I can open an issue if this needs some analysis?
