Person/Place search issue

[yf508]

List of all Persons/Places is slow

As an Admin in Edit Tool, looking at Place/Person list is slow. Currently, there is 4k persons and 2k places in the index

The Search is based on Solr, see People and Person index methods

Question: How fast should Solr query perform?

Person List -> search variant name

Searching for the variant name will not bring any results as Solr query doesn't include altlabel_tesim field.

What we should do next

We will use a profiling tool such as stackproof to narrow down bottlenecks. However, this could be slow Solr performance. We will investigate how to optimize Solr. What else we can do?
