Response type using curl

[elysheba (Liesbeth François)]

Hi,

I’m using curl to query Dgraph (in R) where the response is formatted as a json. However, when sending larger queries (>10,000 of IDs returned) the parsing of this json is a bottleneck. Is it possible to have a response format (other than json) when using curl / http?

Thanks!

Nope.

What kind of bottleneck?

With that many id’s and related information returned, the parsing of the json slows down the query substantially. I have worked on simplifying the query, but that didn’t improve speed a lot.
