It looks like Elasticsearch is currently missing support for concurrent searching and that this is a major prospective optimization to reduce latency.

Digression: this is not the topic at hand but I personally consider the fork OpenSearch to be an historical tragedy of duplication of work and a segregation of improvements. What would be even more anti-utilitarist would be to blindly *ignore* each other advances towards making better search.

Lucene concurrent search APIs are probably among the most important feature/optimization currently not leveraged by Elasticsearch.
The fork OpenSearch has a [pull request](https://github.com/opensearch-project/OpenSearch/pull/1500) implementing support for it.

See also the [corresponding issue](https://github.com/opensearch-project/OpenSearch/issues/1286) 

I believe it would be great for end users if you could take inspiration from the PR and work on this feature.

Great blog about the Lucene feature:
