When you say "no limitations" on maximum words per field, is there any research into performance impacts of say 10kb+ fields (not queried/faceted) on search response? Not worried about bandwidth concerns.

Reading those from disk and sending over wire is going to be slow.

Makes sense. I'm gonna run some tests and report back here.

Another logical issue is that Typesense only provides one snippet per field (best matched highlighted text segment). Splitting docs will allow multiple snippets per document.
