+Benchmarks python graphs
+========================
+
+This page documents an example of how to query elasticsearch and plot the
+results with python. We are currently using ``kibana`` to plot and show graphs,
+but in the future we might want/need the flexibility of python for that.
+
+Some notes about the code example:
+
+* Depends on ``elasticsearch`` for querying and ``matplotlib`` for plotting.
+* Searches need to be scrolled to get all results using a ``scroll_id``.
+* Commit datetime ranges (`1 <https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-range-query.html>`_, `2 <https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/common-options.html#date-math>`_, `3 <https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-aggregations-bucket-daterange-aggregation.html#date-format-pattern>`_) can be put in place to limit results.
