## ๐ Performance improvements
### Enhance hybrid search with filter performances
In previous versions of Meilisearch, mixing hybrid search with filters, as shown below, could multiply the search time by hundreds.
```json
{
"q": "hello world",
"limit": 100,
"filter": "tag=science"
"hybrid": {
"semanticRatio": 0.5,
"embedder": "default"
}
}
```
Meilisearch will now directly compute the semantic distance with the filtered candidates if only a few candidates come from the filter, instead of searching for the closest embeddings matching the filter in the vector database.
