Description

Hello,

As said in the title, I would like to know if you have sampled results over a geographical (circle in my case) search.

When I perform geographical search, I have cases where i will have 500k to potentially millions of objets. I believe I don't need all of those to do my stuff, a sample should do the trick.

For this to work, the sample needs to be distributed (uniformly in an utopic universe, semi-uniformly in a realistic one) over the space covered by the circle search.

Is this possible ? I didn't dug too deep into the backpressure code and such before coming here. Since it looks a bit complex I'd like to know if its even possible before foolishly loosing time :)

Thank you very much for you work, very nice job.

Best regards.
