The most effective way to reduce retriever latency is to narrow the search scope through well-defined filters.

Question
Universal Containers (UC) wants its AI agent to return responses quickly. UC needs to optimize the retriever's configuration to ensure minimal latency when grounding AI responses. Which configuration aspect should UC prioritize?
Options
- AConfigure the retriever to operate in dynamic mode so that it modifies the search Index structure
- BEnsure the retriever's filters are defined to limit the scope of each search efficiently.
- CIncrease the recency bias setting for the retriever limiting scope to more recent data.

Explanation
The most effective way to reduce retriever latency is to narrow the search scope through well-defined filters. When filters limit the retriever to only the relevant subset of indexed data (for example, filtering by record type, date range, or data category), the search engine processes far fewer records, returning results faster. Dynamic mode (Option A) adds overhead by modifying index structures at query time, which increases - not decreases - latency. Recency bias (Option C) adjusts result ranking but does not meaningfully reduce the volume of data scanned. Precise filters are the primary configuration lever for retrieval speed.
