Thanks for the info, but it doesn’t quite apply to my situation since many different users are going to be making these requests and they will be asking for different docs each time. I usually try to keep requests to a few hundred docs max, but this was a stress test to see how it would handle so many at once. I find with a few dozen to a couple hundred it is a very fast request so overall I’m happy with the performance, I just wanted to stress test it with an extreme case to see how it would do.
Our server uses nodejs, so we’ve only been using the couchbase nodejs library to do direct retrievals. I wanted to try sync gateway bulk get since the getMulti call in the nodejs library is spotty and randomly fails if there is normal load on the server. I don’t know if it’s an issue with the library or with my server setup, but until I have time to investigate which one it is I figured I should try other options.
