Description

Hi, I have document with bad performance. I used some profiler
and you can see result

Tue Apr  4 13:02:36 2017    /tmp/profile.pstat

         2399000 function calls (2399641 primitive calls) in 4.152 seconds

   Ordered by: internal time
   List reduced from 148 to 100 due to restriction <100>

Research direction

Start with the profiler output and the MongoEngine paths it names: mongoengine/base/fields.py, mongoengine/fields.py, mongoengine/base/document.py, and mongoengine/queryset/queryset.py. Compare the MongoEngine query with the reported PyMongo 0.3-second result; a useful outcome would identify the cause and define a concrete performance change, but this issue does not specify an expected fix or test.
