Hi @akshaybhujbale,

As far as I know cost for traverse indicates number of nodes that needs to be read (traversed) by search engine base on query criteria to give you a final result.

In general traversing is ineffective method of searching the JCR tree, no index is in use during this operation. Traversing processes whole tree or its sub-tree reading node by node. This is also why AEM has a of number of nodes that can be visited in a single query run. Default it is set to 100000 nodes. It can be configured via Apache Jackrabbit Query Engine Settings Service OSGi configuration.

Here is very detailed recording that describes indexing query, troubleshooting that may interest you:

Here is the jackrabbit documentation for how the cost is calculated

Refer the documentation fro more information

Hope this is helpful
