Data model acceleration
When you enable acceleration for a data model, Splunk internally summarizes the data defined by the data model in a given time range. This gives a tremendous boost to the search speed for your data model. There are a couple of things to remember when you enable data model acceleration:

Ensure that you have properly configured your child objects and attributes before you decide to accelerate. A huge data model may take some time to complete the acceleration process, so plan accordingly. You will only be able to edit the data model again if you disable the acceleration.
Select your summary range wisely. The summary range is the calculation time span that the acceleration will use against your data. The summary range can span 1 day, 7 days, 1 month, 3 months, 1 year, and so on. Search acceleration is based on time ranges. Only those that fall within the selected time...
