      Sets the number of shard requests that should be executed concurrently on a single node.

      public SearchRequestBuilder setPreFilterShardSize​(int preFilterShardSize)

This filter roundtrip can limit the number of shards significantly if for instance a shard can not match any documents based on it's rewrite method ie. if date filters are mandatory to match but the shard bounds and the query are disjoint. The default is 128
