If an index pattern is opted-in for the old behavior, then searches will only send a single query to elasticsearch that will be against the index pattern name itself, wildcard and all.\r\n\r\nThis will help users in two situations:\r\n\r\n- When an index pattern is set up that matches aliases that are protected by shield\r\n- When an index pattern matches many very small indices"}}
