Which queries are counted as part of the max QPS computations?

The maximum query per second (or QPS) metrics are computed from search queries only. Every time such a query is received, the second at which it is performed is counted as part of the maximum QPS computations.

The following actions are considered as “search queries”:

• Search queries against your Algolia indices’ records
• Search queries against your Algolia indices’ facets
• Search queries against your Algolia indices’ synonyms
• Search queries against your Algolia indices’ query rules
• Algolia Places search queries

Note: when we refer to “Search”, this also includes the browse and deleteByQuery methods.
